Two more options:

1. You can also use the MediaMVP device from Hauppauge along with the mvpmc
software <http://mvpmc.sourceforge.net>.

2. You can use an XBox and run XBox Media Center with the MythTV
plugins<http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=128346>
.

I am quite familiar with #1 and have two of them in my house right now.  I
haven't actually done #2 yet, but I have softmodded my XBox and gotten XBMC
installed so I'm pretty close.

P.S. - Rob thanks for the torrent link I'll have to try it out.  Is that
Myth 0.18? (or at least protocol compatible)
