Unbelievable.  I really don't understand why content creators or providers can not simply offer a "decryption license" for their media.  I'm happy to pay for HBO or Cable.  Why should I be forced to buy a lousy TiVo or other DVR when I can build a myth setup.  In fact a decryption license would open the doors for people who only have internet access.  It would completely open up distribution for them.

Sorry for the rant.  For the better part of a year now I've been searching for a way to make mithTv work for me.  It's great.  There's just so much working against it.

yeah, I have no true options as my cable provider (Charter) markets their own PVR settopbox. Right now I'm just pulling the lower 100 channels in Analog off the cable and at some point I'll set up an IR blaster for the cable box access and pull it from there via S-Video. I'm sorry, I don't want to be stuck with their lousy 40gb internal drive and no DVD writing capability.
