It took me roughly an hour to recompile the kernel, put in the WinTV card, install all the prerequisites, install MythTV itself, and run through the MythTV setup.


Heh... Fine. You can come to my house and do all that for me. Recompile the kernel? I haven't the foggiest idea how to do that... I know it's fairly straight forward, and it's a requirement if I want to play in the world of cutting edge free software. I just don't have the time or stress level necessary to research all that. Pity as I think it would be a fun process and MythTV seems to make the menu art very easily accessible. Myth TV doesn't seem to support the Hauppauge card I want either yet... but is sounds like he's looking into it. Any idea if MythTV cares if the signal is HD or not?

msaeger, I hadn't noticed the on the fly playlist creation didn't work. That is disappointing...
