Great! I'll hope for a quick release of 0.16 then<g>.
And if the scrolling idea can get integrated then that's even better.


I forgot to mention in my original email but I must really thank all the
MythTV team for all their work so far. Having started on a 4MHz Z80 with
64KB or RAM, a 320x200x16 screen and 'beep-beep' sound, the capabilities
of today's computers are mind-blowing and MythTV is one of the
applications that best shows them off. It also puts something concrete
behing the 'digital convergence' buzzword and that's very exciting.

       That way, if he gets angry, he'll be a mile away - and barefoot.
