You rock! I haven't tried this yet, but there are few techniques in here that look interesting, like the -B option. And using quickpkg is a great idea, I use it all the time. Dgrant 22:46, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
I haven't actually finished it, yet, either. I've decided to wait for the official ebuilds, since the mytharchive plugin is not yet available as an ebuild. Right now (in 0.19) I have mythburn able to easily make dvds out of recordings, so I don't want to mess that up until the replacement (mytharchive) is available.
