Hi all,
I've been running Linux for quite a while. One night while searching for
programming X10 in Linux I came across the MythTV site and am totally
impressed. I want one! The problem is that we have Time Warner digital
cable and I am uncertain how to hook up a PVR to it. Our cable box is a
Pioneer BD-V1100. Most of the tv cards I've seen only handle 125 channels
but digital cable has significantly more. I've read others on this list
talking about 'controlling' the cable box.
Do I need to somehow control the cable box? If so how is this done? Is
the PVR capable of watching one channel while recording another or does
that require a second card? What recommendations does anyone have for a
good tv card?
Thanks for your help!
