Mythtv setup
For the longest time, I used a 400MHz machine I found abandoned outside as a mythtv backend, but in fall 2007 I assembled a linux box as a combined backend/frontend and general use machine.
Hardware
- Gigabyte Motherboard (GA-M61P-S3 GF6100 AM2)
- AMD 5600 X2 (2.8 GHz)
- 500 GB SATA HDD
- 2 GB OCZ RAM (OCZ2RPR8002GK R)
- (2) AVerTV HD A180 tuners
- Motorola 6200 cable box (renting)
Currently there are three optical drives attached, but I mainly use a cheap IDE drive I found on clearance at Staples.
Software
- Ubuntu Gutsy
- MythTV 0.20.2
