dude, i read that thread and at most what i got from it was that some dumbass couldn't get myth to work with his setup so he loves the iolink because no muss. no fuss. that is fine with me. all i know is you gotta be retarded to not be able to get myth to work. either that or you made a mistake when buying hardware. or you didn't research enough. guess what, i followed the myth mailing lists for over a year and a soon as myth supported the hauppauge pvr cards i jumped on board. wanna know how long it took me to get myth up and running perfectly? answer: about and hour. from no debian to full myth. now, i have definitely used linux before but still. i think the real problem with the myth mailing lists is that people like me who do research and know what they're doing get inundated with rediculous posts from users that don't. fine, mythtv may be quite appealing to joe blow but most of us on the list who can answer questions have put in some time and is it not reasonable that we expect others to do the same. as for the livetv situation it is seriously rediculous. before the livetv change everyone was clamoring for a way to hit record and get whatever program they were watching in livetv added to the program table (a reasonable request i must admit). this was prohibitevly complex with the ringbuffer so isaac redid livetv. now morons are whining about something else, you can't win. and of course no one even peeped when isaac told everyone he was gonna change livetv. hell, i knew it was gonna happen months before it did, it's not like isaac decided one day, hell, i'm gonna piss everyone off and totally redo livetv! no, it was a long time coming. i want to thank isaac for the change. i love the new livetv and i love autoexpire. mythmhandles everything perfectly and without a hiccup. we may be on the outer edge of mythtv (we autoexpire about 150 hours of tv a week) but myth works perfectly for us. keep up the good work and if you don't like myth, try switch to MCE ;) _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
