Anyone got MythTV or Freevo working on FreeBSD?

2004-01-14 Thread Richard Coleman
I'm building a PVR (personal video recorder) right now that will be 
based on either MythTV or Freevo.  I'm building it using the WinTV PVR 
350 card.  From looking at the web pages and documentation for each 
project, it seems that both of these projects are heavily Linux-centric.

Has anybody had success in building either of these packages on a 
FreeBSD system?

There is a skeleton for freevo that is in the PR database waiting to be 
committed.  You can grab that and drop it in your ports and compile and it 
should work, at least it did for me about a month ago.  There is also a 
driver to use the hardware mpeg encoder on your card.  Check the 
multimedia mailing list archives for your card name.
