Hi all,
I just found out about mythtv and it really looks exciting. I have a number
of newbie questions...
Is it possible to use mythtv in conjunction with either directv or dish
network (or even both...?)
Yes, even both.
Can I plug in the receiver's output into the capture card and have mythtv
record the signal? If so, is it possible to pause/rewind that signal as
well?
Yes, and yes.
What about control, how can mythtv control the receiver, in order to change
channels? Is mythtv capable of displaying tv guide listings for say directv
or dish, and then even tuning channels (vai controlling the receiver box)?
Change channels via serial cable or IR blaster. tv guide listings from
labs.zap2it.com (see the mythtv docs).
And, last but not least, what if I have both a dish receiver and a directv
receiver, and 2 tuner cards, is it possible to control both via mythtv? This
would indeed be awesome.
Yes.
Feel free to search the archives for more information.
