There's an excellent product out there that I use already for streaming stuff called SlimServer (http://www.slimdevices.com).  It can stream many different types of media.  As I'm fairly new to MythTV development as well, I don't know how people feel about integrating existing software into the projects.  I too am a Java engineer, though I have experience in many different languages.  Just thought I'd point out an already existing piece of software that might make writing the music section a bit easier.

Actually, I had thought of rewriting MythWeb's music section already, I 
use Jinzora to stream my mp3's to Itune at work and like the setup.
I have not really messed with mythweb's music section, only long enough 
to know that it doesn't work like Jinzora does.  I have no idea what the 
video section does.  Is everything written in php?

I would like to start contributing to MythTV in some way.  
Unfortunately, I don't have a lot of experience in C ( and I don't think 
anybody wants me to gain any by hacking up the mythtv sources ).  I am 
primarily web, I use a lot of Java and php, which naturally means I 
should help with MythWeb.  Where do I start?  Are there any places where 
people post feature requests?
    
      
The two areas where I'm actively searching for help are:

  * MythWeb's music section needs to be completely rewritten
  * MythWeb's video section needs to be completely rewritten

(I don't really use either of these features of MythTV, so they've been 
low on my priority list)

I'm also hoping that someone will send me an updated WAP theme for SVN 
(hopefully before the .19 release).  Its usual maintainer is really busy 
and hasn't told me if he'll be able to do it or not.

I'd also like to get MythStreamTV integrated into the official code now 
that MythWeb has a semi-modular design, though I'll likely let its 
current author work out those details.

And of course, much of MythWeb still needs to be rewritten to use 
semantic markup with better CSS support, but I'll likely tackle that 
myself after .19 is released.
