Not a question that pops up every day ;-) OK, I lie.. Freevo is easier.. Thanks why I use it. I tried mythtv, and I still havne't got mysql working even after using a flat redhat8 build. When I started using freevo I was a complete linux newb, fed up with the PVR options for my dxr3 card on windows.. Hmm, acutally, that IS the only reason I started to used freevo at the start, was the fact that it could display its menu trhough the dxr3, which mythtv cannot do..
So thats its for me, freevo is easier and I have a dxr3.. Also, the level of support and the attitude of the poeple on this list has been briliant... There you go, tap yourselves on the shoulders ppl ;-) Mike On Wed, 2003-07-02 at 13:48, Peter Flodin wrote: > No I'm not a troll.
