For a while in MythTV 0.22 I was getting an error with MiroBridge saying Miro was not set up properly even though Miro worked just fine and I triple checked all my config files. I waited until upgrading to MythTV 0.23 to fix it because there was a much easier one button install option in …
I know what you are thinking, “how did my wife create that amazing (r)evolution commercial?” I would like to take a couple minutes to share with everyone how she made it, and what software I used to help her edit it. First of all here was the setup. She started with a piece of poster …

This is a continuation of Part 1 and in this video I just walk you through a Mythbuntu installation and what options you want to use. The next parts will be about configuring the software past the initial installation. Sorry for the sound quality. I had to use my digital camera for video (which is …
I have been working on my MythTV box for some time now and finally got around to editing the first part of the how to I recorded when setting it up. The first part is just about setting up the hardware (not much new), but the second part (and probably third and forth) is going …

This has been driving me crazy and I cannot figure out how to do it. Here is my problem: I have a work laptop that I obviously use at work as well as at home. At work I have 6 network drives that are mapped automatically if I log into my computer while at work. …
With a new MediaSmart server I was excited to get the TwonkyMedia server up and running to be able to stream all my music and videos over to my PS3. I have some experience with Twonky from my Buffalo NAS and it was the best DLNA server I have ever used. I was a bit …
I decided I needed a better way to keep track of myth MythTV systems I have used in the past, and what I needed to do to get the systems up and running. I started a MythTV Log page that should show up on the left (or the links section depending on my skin). I …
So, when I bought my NAS I started transferring over everything I wanted to keep on it. But then I realized that 500 GB would not be enough room to store everything. Instead of returning the NAS and getting a bigger one, which I did not have money for, I decided to keep the 500 …
I recently traded in my Mac Mini for a AOpen mp945-dr to see if it would work any better with MythTV and Boxee. I started off with Ubuntu 8.10 installed but found some random problems with video not displaying every time the computer would start so I went back to 8.04. On problem I had …
