When I set up my harmony remote (880 if it makes a difference) the website offers several places I could see adding a Myth box. I have added a Myth device as a Video Recorder, then at the next screen chose PVR, then chose MythTV as the manufacturer. In the model box I have simply put in 0.18.1. I confirm the info is correct and say that I don't have another remote. The next screen is takes me to has the heading of "Similar models:" and lists the following:

 

MythTV DCT6200/1000

MythTV 909

MythTV KnoppMyth

MythTV MythTV

MythTV PVR250

 

I can assume that the PVR250 entry is for users of the included PVR 250 IR receiver. Does anyone know the difference between the others (with the exception of KnoppMyth as I am using Jarod's guide and FC4). I am using a Comcast DCT6200 and Myth has no problem changing the channels on it, but is there some way the the cable box can communicate IR commands to Myth via firewire or something? What am I missing in looking at all of these different choices? How are the DCT6200, 909 and MythTV entries different?

If it helps, I have the same remote which I use with an Ahanix VFD/IR board. I used the MythTV/MythTV setup and taught it all of the command from my remote - it doesn't take long. The main advantage is that virtually all of the myth functions are already defined so you just have to teach it the IR signals.
