Sorry for starting this. I was just trying to warn him of the pain ahead. DirecTV has a Tivo-HD system for $999.00. It will record OTA-HD which is the only source of HD content I care about here in SoCal. During my configuration and setup I said on several occasions to my wife I should have bought the Tivo. But now I have the Mythtv system up and running. My wife crashes it on a constant bases and has given up on it. I haven't had the time to start the investigation process to identify the source. I will. This is what I've been doing with computers since I got my first 386DX in 1992. I know I'm new compared to most on this list. But I'm ok with spending time tweaking systems. That's why I guess I really like Mythtv. It works and I get to constantly tweak with it. kel _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
