Mythtv is very close to handling DVB very nicely. Currently it works fine, but you will find that you have to jump through a few hoops to get stuff setup because it's a pretty manual process right now. I hope that if you check back in matter of weeks this will have changed though Myth very much goes down the eye candy route vs VDR. It also has a slightly nicer way of handling pausing live tv. However, VDR excels at low cpu and pretty bug free operation. You will need either a full featured DVB card though, or else a second hand DXR-3 and you can only get tv out through whichever of these cards you buy. (ie no software decoding). I would suggest trying Mythtv and check the archives for messages on how to set things up Ed W -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
