Everything I have done with MythTV. Including hardware and software that I have used and things I have tried whether successful or unsuccessful.
Ok, it has been quite a while since my first two articles on this (Part 1 and Part 2) and I wanted to post a little update on my situation. I haven’t worked on my linkstation hard drive because I decided to go a slightly different route. Ultimately, I want something that has some...

Read more →Continued from here (sorta). At least the titles are the same. After a break from Mythtv I decided I needed to change some things. I needed to be able to watch and record HDTV. I thought this would not be very difficult at first. I soon found out I was very wrong. Step 1:...

Knoppmyth came out with a update (R5E50) recently which adds mythtv 0.20 with all the plugins I could ever want. Sure I had mythtv 0.20 installed under Ubuntu but I...
