It shoudl be fine with the 350. But with only one card, you won't make
that "record 2 shows at once" requirement.

as far as I know, this is correct. does not work.

AAC player or encoder? I've been messing with this today for myself
(silly ipod won't play ogg), and as far as I can tell there's only one
encoder for linux, and because of licensing issues (silly patents) it
CANNOT be distributed as a binary. Not sure how it goes for players,
though - so maybe we can get a free player like faad2 integrated into
mythmusic.

No. at the moment, it's interactive-commandline-only with my nuvexport
script. Once I have some time (getting harder and harder to find it),
I'd like to build an automatic command line interface and scheduler so
it can be more easily integrated with myth/mythweb.
