Oh, I'm so glad to be using MythTV! This project ROCKS!

Since tv_grab_dk_alt stopped working due to complete layout change at tdckabeltv.dk, I created tv_grab_dk_tdckabeltv grabber instead.

Find it here: attachment:tv_grab_dk_tdckabeltv

Sincerely,

I'm J. Donavan Stanley a software engineer for going on 14 years or so now. About half of that time was spent working for Compuserve and later AOL doing Unix server side development. I'm currently doing Windows based client side development as a consultant, not my favorite stuff but it pays the bills.

I started playing with MythTV in Dec. of 2003, before I even had a capture card for my box. By Jan. I'd started using it in conjunction with my Tivo. By Feb. I'd gained a high enough WAF that my wife requested the removal of our Tivo. It was about that time that I started submitting patches back to the project. Isaac got tired of applying all of my patches over the course of the following months, and gave me commit rights to the CVS tree.


I'm currently working on a facelift for the Blue Theme

Personal: I've built a diskless VIA M10k (netboot) in a Travla C158-60W case. I replaced the front panel circuit board with one I build that puts an IR receiver at the HD activity hole, has an RF tranmitter on my ceiling fans frequency, and connects to the internal serial header for use with LIRC.

I'm a little disapointed with the noise from the Travla case fan. I bought a "low noise" 40mm fan from Micro Center, and it was barely audible when I powered it up, but when I installed it in the case, it makes more noise than the original. There must be something about the grill, or vibration of the case itself.

I had ordered a PVR-500MCE from buy.com, and after a month of it on backorder, ordered another from BLT, figuring I'd cancel one when the other shipped. They both shipped at the same time two weeks later. D'Oh!

Installed one PVR-500 in my old 400MHz K6-3 desktop, built a lot of software, worked out a lot of problems (mostly of my own creation), and have a setup with very few problems.

There is some A/V stuttering occasionaly in live tv mode, which I need to work out. Also, the left and right side of the TV display are not straight. I tweaked the X driver so that it at least covers the entire visible portion of the TV, but it is very obvious when menus are displayed because the lines near the edges are curved. I'm waiting for an alternate TV out video card to determine if it is the M10K video, or my TV. The listers seem to think it is my TV, but my TiVo displays almost no curve, using the same input and cables.

Speaking of waiting, I finally ordered my dedicated backend parts, but for some reason a week has past and Monarch has still not shipped them. I scaled back to a single processor AMD64 3200+ (939), and lots of memory so I can also run Slim Server on the same machine. Slim Server seems to be a memory hog, keeping all the data of my CD collection in it's Perl brain. I'm hoping the new backend will relieve the A/V stuttering problem during live tv.

MythTV has supplanted my TiVo, and that's no small accomplishment.

Hi everyone,

I've put mythfrontend on an Xbox and I'm not trying to make sure I can access all my music.

I have this problem: I want to create playlists in XMMS or Win Amp and use them in mythtv-music.

If anybody knows how, please let me know. Otherwise my quest for the truth starts now.

And if you want to mod an old xbox to run linux, just let me know!

  • Hey Dani,

About your problem, just use Winamp and save theh playlists as .pls or save them as m3u and change the extension to pls. If you keep all your music in the same folder structure (playlist in the folder with tunes) you should be able to play it this way.
