i know this forum has some of the best and brightest gearheads, so here's the questions:
if someone were to wire their house with ethernet wiring, and was willing to invest in a decent computer, what is the best solution to record HD TV and serve it via ethernet to TVs in the home? i am assuming linux will be the cheapest, but as OS and as PVR app. so mythtv? freevo? something else? can i DL an iso, install it, and be ready to go? (know very little about linux) assuming USA, and assuming cable TV, what tuner cards? do they work with "cable cards?" what about the move from analog cable to digital cable? does the app that records the show, also serve the show out? via upnp? dlna? other? what client or media adapter do you need on the other end of the ethernet from the server? i know some of you have got something going already, interested to hear what you think! :) -- MrSinatra www.lion-radio.org using: sb2 & sbc (my home) / sbr (parent's home) - w/sc 7.3.4b - win xp pro sp3 ie8 - 3.2ghz / 2gig ram - 1tb wd usb2 raid1 - d-link dir-655 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrSinatra's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67113 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
