All it does is capture the output of the mpeg stream and write it to disk. However, this does not help with mixed DVB and IVTV.

I don't see why it installing freevo should be difficult, it is just a collection of python packages, which are dead easy to install manually. Having said that, I have had some fun installing freevo in as a virtual machine vmware server. I installed Gentoo as a client and took the latest iso image as the CD-ROM installer. Discovered that python is installed as 2.4 and some of the dependencies are installed in 2.4/site-packages before the installer reinstalled python 2.5 and not updating these packages. Running the python-updater fixed this problem. It took a bit of time to work out what was going on. Also Numeric was not in the dependency list so freevo wouldn't start. Need to add this check to python setup.py install.

Re: [Freevo-users] How to setup Hauppauge pvr-500 analogue TV?
PVR-150 has an inherent MPEG-encoder and I think recording could be managed by the card itself. Any idea how to send a command for that from Freevo? In that way, maybe I can use freevo-recorder for digital and inherent TV-card recorder for analogue?
