So Mythweb had a link that would take the “friendly” name to generate a file. Since most of my programs are converted by handbrake to .mp4, this made it extremely easy to save a show out of myth, instead of using mytharchive. I would just download the file and then burn it/move it/edit it. Then I’d delete the original recording.
Don’t have time to watch a show? Save the file to your phone and watch on the train/plane. Name is Name of Show (and maybe subtitle/episode name?).
