Do you mean dvbstreamer or some other method?

Also, is there any support for EIT yet? mythtv has no trouble pulling  
guide data off the air these days. For the stations i can pick up at  
least.

I have both a mythtv system and two freevo systems. Myth is pretty OK  
at the live tv thing. Acceptable at managing recordings. Excremental  
at helping the user access static content. MythMusic in particular is  
quite scatological in quality.

I'd like to delete at least one of my HTPC systems. So far i only use  
freevo as a media jukebox. And i only use mythtv as an ATSC PVR -  
which is very easy to do with the right video hardware and drivers.  
Off-the-air ATSC is the sole use i have for a live tv system, as i  
still use my directivo for SD viewing and don't expect any OSS sytem  
to approach it's usability in the next 10 years.
