MythTV OSD & "display_rooms" Parameter

[Andy M.]

Hi All,

  This is a note for those not watching the SVN mailing list.

  I have committed to Subversion a new function to enable the "display_rooms" parameter to be used for configuring MythTV OSD devices. You can send messages using the old telephone CID format (as used by the display_mythosd() function) or the larger format "alert" format.

  An example mh.private.ini is:
    display_rooms = lounge_myth_msg => device=mythtv address=lex:6948 container=alert,
                    lounge_myth_cid => device=mythtv address=lex:6948 container=cid

  and to use the above example in user code:
      display('display_rooms=lounge_myth_msg   This actually works!!");

  I realise mythtv_osd.pl exists with display_mythosd(). To add the "address" and "container" options would have broken display_mythosd() for current users. Hopefully, in the future the use of display_mythosd() will be deprecated.

Enjoy,
Andy.
