Introducing another awesome [web] app — Chris Carey’s MythTV for the iPhone! Stream recorded TV directly from your MythTV DVR to your iPhone using Mobile Safari.

MythTV for iPhone allows you to watch your TV shows on your MythTV DVR on your iPhone.

The software combines the work of many great programmers into one application. It allows you to browse your recorded shows, and look at show details. You can stream any recorded show to the iPhone wirelessly. It allows you to control your other (PC based) MythFrontend with a web-based remote control.

The technology behind it is MythTV (The Open-Source DVR), PHP for the backend, Smarty and iUI for the frontend.

At last — copy & paste support for Mobile Safari!

Preston’s iCopy is installed as a bookmark utilizing JavaScript to enable copy/paste between websites. Before using iCopy, please make yourself aware of the pros and cons listed below. Namely the copying & pasting of sensitive data is a big no no; iCopy sends pasted text across the Internet in order to function properly. Nonetheless, awesome work.

Demonstration video:

Pros:

• You can copy and paste almost any text on the page.
• You can email a friend a great web page you found. Emailed text retains its HTML formatting including absolute links and images.

Cons:

• Doesn’t work with every page (mostly pages with frames).
• When pasting it is required to reload the page.
• The text you paste is added to the URL and sent across the Internet. This is VERY INSECURE so be sure not to copy and paste important private information.

To install iCopy — follow the instructions here.

You gotta check this out… iTransmogrify!

The iTransmogrify! bookmarklet recognizes and converts a variety of embedded Flash content from web pages so they will play on iPhone.

To install: drag this link to your browser bookmarks, then sync with your iPhone. Should you come across a broken YouTube video or flash-based MP3 player in Mobile Safari, just select the bookmark and there it is! That simple.

Earle from iFone Arcade sent word the other day, Connect 4 is now iPhone-enabled and available for online play. Connect remotely with players from around the globe and line four of ‘em up to win. It’s a classic, you know what it’s all about. The concept is simple: (Wikipedia describes it best)

Connect Four (also known as Plot Four, Four In A Row, and Four In A Line) is a two-player board game in which the players take turns in dropping alternating colored discs into a seven-column, six-row vertically-suspended grid. The object of the game is to connect four singly-colored discs in a row — vertically, horizontally, or diagonally — before your opponent can do likewise.

Browse over to ifonearcade.com via Mobile Safari on your iPhone and/or iPod Touch. Register and enjoy.

Other games such as Battleship and Tic-Tac-Toe are available too.

Well I couldn’t word it any better myself… So here’s what Earle Davies has to say about their most recent update to the [new] peer-to-peer online iPhone arcade:

From the people who brought you the amazing p2p online game of battleship, comes the newest game in the lineup: tic-tac-toe. If you don’t have time to play the long game of battleship, playing a quick game of tic-tac-toe vs. a live person can pass the time. Hop on over to http://www.ifonearcade.com and checkout the newly redesigned battleship and newly created tic-tac-toe. Stat tracking for registered members and more features including an in-game chat are included. If you could please add this new tic-tac-toe and update the battleship link that would be awesome!

Absolutely brilliant! Don’t hesitate. Browse over to ifonearcade.com (via Mobile Safari) and start making a name for yourself. Games are compatible with the iPhone and iPod Touch. If you end up against GregCube, it means your ass is grass, sucker.

“You sunk my battleship!” That’s what Snakesm13 is saying right about now. Good game dude — if you’re reading this…

Hop on your iPhone, or iTouch for that matter, fire up Mobile Safari and browse over to http://www.teamtpfl.com/iPhone.

Indulge in a classic game of Battleship against other players from around the globe. Place your ships wherever desired; shortly thereafter you’ll be connected to someone else waiting to play.

Props to Earle, Colin, and flygangsta. Nice work.

Enjoy!

P.S. Snakesm13, you best change your coordinates next time. ;)
