If it's just for one person, I use my Dell Axim, but you want to show it to a few people on a portable dvd player, thats different. > Not for me...I'd rip the DVDs and make them available for > me in my family room where I don't have a DVD player, > but I do have a mythtv frontend... Thats a good idea. Is there a way to play a DVD right from the drive on the backend and view it on the front end then? Or does it need to be ripped first? > I'd rather give the money I would have spent on a commercial, > non-expandable, closed source PVR to the developers here, > in the community I enjoy being a part of. I would too. I'd rather see a project like this get better and better, rather than sink a bunch of cash into a closed unit. -=/>Thom
