 Does any one on the list have a mythtv setup?
 
 I have a broken one. I haven't been able to get it going anywhere near
 satisfactorily, so I went back to using crontab.

Aye, MythTV is probably one of the world job schedulers I've ever seen.

 HUH?

That is to say, I tried setting up mythtv. It downloads the TV timetables
from ebroadcast.com.au and puts them in its database, which was a reasonable
amount of effort on its own. I haven't, however, actually been able to get
it to record anything, so it's on the backburner. 

I may look at it again later, but for now I've gone back to putting an entry
in the cron tables each time I want the computer to record something.

Is that any clearer?

I am at the moment trying to get my channel tunned in correctly. I have the
machine collecting the TV time tables.
