MythStream is pretty awesome and now thanks to the efforts of Andrew Pollock doing the debianization it works with Mythbuntu...If you are running i386 get the binary package from here: http://www.andrew.net.au/~apollock/mythstream/mythstream_0.17.2-2_i386.deb
Otherwise if you're on AMD64 like me, you can roll your own using the following instructions I cooked up:
cd ~
wget http://www.andrew.net.au/~apollock/mythstream/mythstream_0.17.2.orig.tar.gz
wget http://www.andrew.net.au/~apollock/mythstream/mythstream_0.17.2-2.diff.gz
tar -zxvf mythstream_0.17.2.orig.tar.gz
sudo aptitude -y install dpkg-dev debhelper g++
sudo aptitude -y install qt3-dev-tools libmyth-0.20-dev fftw-dev
zcat mythstream_0.17.2-2.diff.gz | patch -p0
cd mythstream-0.17.2.orig/
chmod +x debian/rules
debian/rules
make
debian/rules binary-arch
cd ~
sudo aptitude -y install libxml-dom-perl libxml-xql-perl
sudo dpkg -i mythstream_0.17.2-2_$(dpkg --print-architecture).deb
next up you'll have to configure mythstream as per the instructions... so
zcat /usr/share/doc/mythstream/INSTALL.gz | less # jump to section "5)"Then restart mythtv-frontend and away you go....
nano /usr/share/mythtv/library.xml /usr/share/mythtv/media_settings.xml /usr/share/mythtv/themes/MythCenter-wide/theme.xml # edit as per the instructions in the INSTALL file
