Hello all. Finally played with mythtv yesterday. Excellent, but now I need a new hard drive (or two). I do have a few things I can't figure out, however. How do I choose svhs input for the ConvertX? I've set default input to svhs in mythsetup->capture cards->go7007, and given Composite a lower priority than S-Video in mythsetup->input connections, but it still only records over composite.

Also, how does one go about exporting .nuv for backup on removable media? I can't play .nuv directly with mplayer (unsure if this is an amd64 issue), and the naming is unfriendly. Is it possible to re-encode to a .avi, rename and still maintain the link into the media browser? What would be really nice is to have the myth data sitting in the transport header (ie ogg fields or similar) so that archived myth recordings could be identified and external myth recordings could be integrated (ie this file was dl'd and it's this program, which is scheduled, but I now have this episode, so no need to record this episode). Combine that with offline archive knowledge and it would not record an episode which is already recorded, regardless of where it actually is (ie recording metadata kept). Yeah, I can hear it now... 'He just runs it yesterday and already he wants a CMS'. heh. Thanks,

Andy
