UPnP Frontend Discovery #49

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
MythTV fontends broadcast themselves over UPnP just like the backends do. It 
should be possible to auto-discover frontends on the local network, in addition 
to being able to explicitly configure frontends.

This will be a big help with most home routers that use DHCP, and may not give 
frontends the same IP every time.

This is actually an Enhancement request, but I guess I can't change that.

I did not realize the frontend broadcasts itself over UPnP. I'll have to look 
into this.
