As a fairly new user of mythtv, I have to agree that a help system or
"new user documentation" would be helpful. Something non-technical and
more user manual related. I found that the documentation available for
mythtv was good, and reasonably thorough, although lacking a few
(common?) technical issues, but I have only been able to find a couple
pages worth of how to use mythtv itself. One thing that I thought
rocked about my ReplayTV was it came with a recorded "show" of how to
use the box. It was about a half hour long, and showed how each menu
worked and how to schedule shows, etc.

I'd be willing to help contribute to a user manual, although, I'm
still learning how to use mythtv by trial and error. :)
