Miro for Debian
---------------

 * The default Miro movies directory in Debian is ~/.miro/Movies
   instead of ~/Movies/Miro.

 * Also, the non-video directory in Debian is ~/.miro/Nonvideo
   instead of ~/Desktop.

 * The autoupdate feature, which checks for new versions of Miro,
   has been disabled in the Debian package.

 * The iHeartMiro nag screen is disabled in the Debian package.
   You can install iHeartMiro Firefox plugin manually from the
   http://www.iheartmiro.org/ website if you want to use it.

 * You can install 'python-psyco' which will likely speed up Miro a bit.

 * If you want to redirect the sound output (but not video) to another
   host via 'esddsp' here's what you have to do:

    - Edit ~/.xine/config to say 'audio.driver:esd' on your localhost.

    - Start an esd server on another (remote) host, e.g.
      using 'esd -public -tcp'. Make sure you allow connections to your
      esd server (check firewall settings for port 16001 and your
      /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny).

    - Now run 'esddsp -s xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:16001 miro' on localhost, where
      xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address of the host where esd runs.
      The video will now be displayed on localhost, audio will be redirected
      to the remote host's esd.
