Good point, but:

I don't even own a TV set, so I don't have this option. I use my MythTV 
box to drive a CRT projector in my theater, or I watch a frontend in my 
bedroom that drives a 20" computer monitor. The projector has only 
RGBHV inputs, and the monitor has only a VGA input.

So, if I just want to surf through the channels for half an hour before 
bedtime, what do I do?

Actually, I boot Windows and run Dscaler in that case... I've been 
meaning to have a look at TVtime (which uses some of the excellent 
Dscaler code) but just haven't gotten around to it.

Maybe what we need is a surfing plug-in for MythTV?
