[mythtvnz] Multiple channels one multiplex solution?

[Nick Rout]

I found this via browsing the mythtv-users list. Someone came up with 
the great idea of using vlc to capture a whole multiplex and retransmits 
as a number of udp streams (one per channel). Myth then treats each udp 
stream as an IPTV channel.

I can't quite work out which version of myth is needed to do IPTV, but 
this seems like a simple and quite neat hack.

The threrad which drew it to my attention is here 
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/279970 and the wiki 
howto is here:

Anyone tried this, or want to give it a go with freeview dvb-s?
