I have a hardware PVR - I think we're a few years away from software PVRs being particularly mainstream. Whilst MythTV has come a long way, it in particular has a lot of work to do to make it work properly for the average user. I certainly hope it's got better than a year ago when I couldn't even manage to get Mythubuntu working on my home PC! I've used Linux since about 1998. I have all sorts of peripherals working. But I still have to scurry to Windows to use my TV card :( Give me a hardware PVR that sits neatly under my TV any day. - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
