I wouldn't run the backend on the device itself, but I would like to use it as a slave. My backend has only 2 PCI slots, which are filled with 2 OTA ATSC cards. But saying that, I could add USB external tuners to the same backend...
My backend is a 100$ PC from Fry's (Duron 1.6Ghz), works great... If you plan running the backend on that NSLU2, you'll need to fatten it for sure... I was running a backend on a PII 350 and the database was slow as hell. Maybe it was configuration issue, but it felt slow... Steve M.
