Hello fellows :-)
Has someone a python code snipet to get the recordings (listings)
from a mythtv system ? (and store the video local instead of playing)
I know I can add a video section with mythtv as source.
I think about to integrate a function to integrate a function to burn
a recorded show to dvd.
Mythbox and the support for mythtv protocoll over the video section
are imho very good to watch the recorded shows but I can not burn the
recorded shows to dvd. Starting the mythtv frontend over xbmc with launcher to only burn a show is not I would like to do.
All the software for transcoding and burnig is allready used by my addon and I guess someone other would also like burn mythtv recordings from the xbmc ui-interface.
Let us make a example :
- we have the database name including location / user and the password.
- This would be also the info you need to add mythtv as a source
inside the video-section.
What would be the best solution ?
- use mysql scripts to connect to the mythtv system and get the name of the shows including path from the mythtv-system ?
- use python to get the listing from within xbmc.
- Could I use a xbmc python function to store the video from the mythtv-system and not play only ?
What are your opinions ?
- use mythtv functions that are allready inside xbmc
- use code from Mythbox to get the video ...
- use own scripts ...
Regards Hans
