Awesome idea for my abandoned N800!

I can't get mythtomer running - it errors out:

mythetomer: error while loading shared libraries: libbluetooth.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Bluetooth is installed (but not part of the system). I can modprobe -l libbluetooth.so.2 with no error.

If the Bluetooth dependency were removed it would help... I plan to use WLAN only.

N800 portion installed fine and looks great! This is very promising. Thanks!

Why are you modprobing an .so file! They're equivalent (roughly) to windows dll's, not to device drivers! Linux device drivers are .ko files, found in /lib/modules/kernel-version, and there isn't one named libbluetooth!

Anyway, if you have a different version of libbluetooth installed (my gentoo box had libbluetooth.so.1), simply create a symlink to that file - something like the following, as root on your Myth box "ln -s /usr/lib/libbluetooth.so.1 /usr/lib/libbluetooth.so.2"

It's possible the older lib may not have all the functions of the newer, so that's generally not the best idea, but if you're only using wlan anyway, it shouldn't be a big deal. If you ever do go to bluetooth, it could come back to bite you - could be a long and frustrating search for that link you created - speaking from experience here!

Hmm I gotta try it without the firewall but it tells me it's connected but it won't control anything (telnet control is on).
New server version is now available. It tries to address this issue. If the remote seems to do nothing when buttons are pressed, I highly recommend that you try this server version. Especially, try running mythetomer with command line parameter '-frontend' and specifying MythTV frontend window title. For example,
mythetomer -frontend "MythTV Frontend"

Great app really impressed the wife with this one, thank you. Is there a way to set mythfrontend and ipport at same time? Also is there a config file to set this up permanently?

Now there is, check out the version 0.3. I added support for both features. I also added support for mythwelcome, and changed the default IP port from 6547 to 6548 since MythTV 0.21 acquires the former. The new server version includes couple of fixes, too.

Is there a possiblity to create a mute button with a custom or system command?

I couldn`t figure it out by myself.

Thanks for the app, it`s almost perfect (the mute button is missing ;-)

Hey Icewood,

Thanks for your program!

I modified it to work with vlc using the telnet rc control as it provided better performance/features compared to mplayer/xine. Open source works
