[mythtv-users] mythtv on disabled tivo box?

[mythtv at brtb.org]

I think the fact that it's not x86 isn't as important as the fact that the
main processor's only 50mhz, and IIRC (which I may be very far off on,
haven't paid any attention lately) there aren't any Myth-usable drivers for
the MPEG encoding and display hardware.
