I run a MythTV system and I'd love to be able to mark programmes as favourites from either the backend or one of the two frontends. I could set the location of the config files to be in a shared folder on the server, but I'm worried that this would cause issues between Windows and Linux frontends and also if instances of TV-Browser were running on more than one machine consecutively. The obvious solution is a client-server approach. I would love it if each user could have their own "mark" colour. This could either be done by Windows/Mac/Linux username, or by a separate authentication system.
As a starting point, it would be good if the program could deal with the config files being stored in a central location, and with more than one instance running without over-writing each other's changes (e.g. marked programs).
I know a little Java, but I doubt I'll be any help on the development side - sorry! Let me know if you think this is feasible...
