Hi Nick
I have just been using myth to watch pre-recorded shows and dvd's so
far, but I just invested in a Hauppauge PVR-150MCE so hopefully by the
end of the weekend I will be watching and recording live TV through it
too.
As all my TV comes through an external SkyTV satellite decoder I will be
using composite in, has anyone got any tips on changing channels on a
SkyTV box programmatically - I am thinking I will have to make a IR
transmitter and use it to emulate the decoder's remote control?
Same as the previous poster I am in the UK but I use Sky.
I have the redremote serial (link already posted) and it was a doddle to
setup.. although I did have to configure it on a windows box first (no
big deal - and only took 30 seconds with the supplied windows application)
little bit of sticky-tape to attach to the IR on the front of the Sky
box and I was away.. very reliable too
As already mentioned it takes a couple of seconds to switch channels but
as you will soon realise this isn't a problem as with Myth you'll spend
all your time watching stuff already recorded earlier.
Have fun!
Craig
