[mythtv-users] More problems than it's worth?

[R Schwantes]

Just thought I'd add my 2cents ...
<rant>
I'm currently running .14 or .15(cant check now).  It was a PITA to
install and get running.

Eventually, I did get it running and everything is great.  It maybe
crashes twice a month(ivtv is the suspect) .

I would upgrade it but the WAF is so ridiculously high she will not
let me touch the box.  mythtv has literally changed the way we watch
tv ..its totally awsome and well worth the $/time commentment to get
running.

"...invest a few thousand in hardware into a problem ridden system."
my system is a 400mhz celeron with a pvr350 = cost was < $300
