[GRLUG] mythtv

[David Pembrook]

For though that might have tried MythTV some time ago and got frustrated 
with the whole thing... I'm happy to report they've come a long way on that.

One can install and hook it right up to the tv without hitting the 
command line once. I still wind up there tweaking it a bit.. nfs mounts 
and what not. But it handled the tv out settings and nvidia drivers all 
by itself. The remote control is handled well (some tweaking to do there).

I tried both knoppmyth and mythbuntu and found I liked the mythbuntu a 
bit better in the end (though there are some pluses for either of them). 
Nice out of the box experience with room for tweaking for those 
inclined. The whole thing is pretty slick and installs in under an hour. 
I didn't time it.

Anyone else on the list using mythtv?
