some atrocious menus. They're fun but I don't need to see the little space
ship zoom off through the wormhole every time I want to switch episodes. I
found a guide to rip those onto my computer using a couple of Windows
programs ("Windows, why can't I quit you?")

Did the same thing for my wife's MASH dvds. Now I just wish I could have
Myth use the DVD episodes instead of the TV recordings when one comes on tv
that I already have on the computer. :/ It'd free up the tuner for other
stuff and reduce use of the CPU for needless commercial skip. I was told
that was impossible and it was never going to happen. I'm no programmer so I
can't argue with whoever it was that said that.
