I know I have a hard time keeping up on this list. I also have a hard time doing the google thang with some topics about Myth, probably because there is so much content, you really have to know *exactly* what you are searching for to get any relevant info.

For example, I was trying to get MythWeather animation working. My first attemps at google found many posts about people doing it, but little detail. Even when I new I needed to have a WeatherWantAnimated" setting somewhere, my first search for mythweather and weatherwantanimated had no hits on where to stuff that setting. I had to really tweak my search to find the sql I was looking for. I then added an entry to the mythtv.info FAQ list with the info.

I saw - thanks :)
That was what the wiki was intended for - condensing many posts into a few lines of concentrated goodness.


Before I read this part of this thread, I was thinking of adding one topic per day to the FAQ, as my time allows, with the most repeated question on the list lately. Well, the most common question that I understand the answer enough to write up. Today I did the MythWeather w3.weather.com and animated radar question. Not that it is posted that much, but because I just did it.

I hope the FAQ info on mythtv.info is still being integrated into the real FAQ.

It's not yet - there's work underway to integrate it but it's stalled for a time.


Would it be worth my time to reorganize the FAQ, is this already being worked on, or is there a more current source of info that is being updated that I am not aware of?

I wouldn't yet.

But it *is* worth starting a new page called FAQ Suggestions or similar.
