MythControlled is an advanced remote control and interface for MythTVs (homebrew DVRs), allowing you to control many aspects of your MythTV with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You can also stream videos and recordings from your MythTV to watch them on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, while connected to the same WiFi network.
CONTROL UP TO FOUR MYTHTV FRONTENDS AND BACKENDS
The app can search for MythTVs on your network and connect to them automatically. For more advanced setups, you can manually connect to MythTVs as long as you know the frontend and backend local IPv4 addresses. This includes the ability to stream content remotely if you use port forwarding or VPN.
EASY TO USE
The remote control screen features large buttons that are easy to press without looking down. Some buttons, such as the directional arrows, feature repetition, such that you can hold them down and the action will be repeated until you let go.
