Hi Michael,

 

Actually I found out about them after doing some research on cablecard.
I've had a chat to the company and they tell me that there software is
20-50% better than anything else available on the MythTV platform
because of the amount of independent development they have done.

 

What I am trying to understand is what rights they have to sell software
that has been developed from the Myth TV platform.

 

The reasoning behind this is I'm working with a group of people who are
looking at funding some development in open source software around the
cablecard standard.

 

(sorry if my questions sound like a newbie but this is my first
involvement with open source apart from funding some developments on the
Asterisk open source IP PABX space).

 

 

Cheers,

Dean

	Does anyone on this list know anything about www.d1.com.au and
their HMC product http://www.d1.com.au/hmc/index.html which is based on
MythTV.

	 

	If someone is commercially selling software based on MythTV do
they need to pay a license fee? Or do they need to donate the software
back to the community as they do with www.asterisk.org 

	 

	What is involved with commercially distributing MythTV?

	 

	 

	 

	Cheers,

	Dean
