It wouldn't need much in the way of porting to OSX, since most everything's 
already done in libmythtv/ - it'd mainly just need a new class that'd let it 
record video somehow.

I am looking to do that partially -- for one specific, external tuner.

About v4l: What's wrong with QuickTime on the Mac ?

It says:
Note: this is a frontend only, not a complete MythTV installation.

The frontend does, but the backend, which operates tuners and 
recordings, does not.  It would need to be ported and support for Mac 
tuners or a Mac equivalent of v4l added

Tried that.  No help.  Perhaps you could migrate Myth to OS X with the 
Formac driving it.

Good Luck!

I have missed several shows due to TitanTV's inaccurate schedule and I am

It occurs to me that MythTV has all the "pieces" I need for a replacement.
I am interested in the EPG and recording scheduling portions.  I believe I

Yes, for sure.  I have one as well.  It is only used to transcode Video
onto a Mac.  I would love to attach it to my PC and use MythTV with it.
That would make it three tuners on Myth!!!
