as I understand it, freevo cant record tv, so you can't pause, rewind 
and so forth. Since that is _why_ I would want a pvr in the first place 
freevo is useless to me.

I use 0.8 right now. Rock solid and has been up continuously since 0.8 
was released. I use it constantly, so it is getting a good workout. If 
you are getting a lot of crashes you must have something wrong with your 
setup, or perhaps you are using cvs which does not advertise itself as 
being stable. So by my count mythtv easily wins on features, and is 
solid to boot.
