Works for me.

I'd recommend looking at the atrpms that include dvb kernel modules and 
drivers for some cards.  Not sure about DVICO support, but you could 
check.  I can almost use them for my pcHDTV-3000 (drivers are new, 
still have some dependency problems in atrpms).

I wouldn't say there is dilution.  People contribute where they can.  I 
could do absolutely zero for the tv part of Myth, but I've looked 
through MythWeb and MythMusic for places I could contribute.

Admittedly, most first (and second and third) posts to the myth lists 
get ignored.  Everyone expects either someone else will answer or 
someone else will tell you to "search the archives".  Which really 
doesn't work as well as they think.
