Hi Skunk,

I'm afraid not. It was quite hairy to get my setup working correctly. My
motherboard, capture card combination gave me big problems that took the
ivtv driver writer some effort to get fixed. IMHO it's not for Linux
beginners yet. Videobox is a lot easier that way, but of course, it
doesn't do recordings, which is the great thing about MythTV.

Regards,
Peter
