I also have one lying around from the 90s (P166 days) and would like
to use it somehow, even just so it's not gathering dust. I'm quite
sure xine has an ouput plugin to allow DVD/MPEG2 to be decoded through
it, so maybe MythTV could be hacked to use it somehow - perhaps all
native MPEG2 recordings could be automatically exported to MythVideo
for accelerated playback through it?
