PS3
- need more info! (not even sure if anyone has MythTV working on one yet?)
- Yes, tested as a backend & frontend using Gentoo, MythTV 0.20 on a 60GB PS3 with a WINTV-PVR-USB2 tuner. --Yani 10:21, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
- Yani, you stated that playback is slow due to the framebuffer. Did you compile MythTV against normal Qt and run it inside X with framebuffer as driver, or did you compile MythTV against qt-embedded and run it directly from the console without X? I already have a backend server running fine so i'm only interested in a frontend on the PS3. --Shyru 09:26, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
- I started a new page documenting my own progress of MyhtTV on the ps3: MythTV on Playstation 3 --Shyru

AppleTV
The article claims that it is capable of HD. While, it may be capable of outputting at HD resolutions, I do not think it's capable of HD in a MythTV context (i.e. playing a broadcast ATSC MPEG2 stream), it doesn't have the horsepower. People have tried playing HD MPEG2 via VLC, and found the AppleTV can't keep up.
