MythTV doesn't use mplayer for the Live TV mode, it uses it's own internal player.
You can make a menu option to use tvtime instead of the internal player, please search the archives, this has been asked (and discussed) before. Not using the internal player for Live TV basically negates the PVR functions of MythTV, and if I recall correctly, may even mess up the scheduler. -- Joe --- Sapan Ganguly <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Can I use tvtime instead of mplayer to watch TV on > my mythtv box?
