I finally decided to tackle the project of building a MythTV box at
home. I loaded up FC5 x64 on an AMD Sempron64 3000+ system with a
PVR-150, Nvidia 6200 (with svideo) connected to a simple analog TV and a
DirecTv satellite receiver.
All went well. I manged to get the entire system up and running (after
debugging a bad 512MB memory module.. I've RMA'ed that!), updated
everything, got MythTV installed, and attacked the setup. I had a
couple of odd hangs of the system during the setup process, and, after
restarts, I was able to pick up where I left off.
I brought up the frontend and managed, after a couple of similar hangs,
to get everything there configured and actually had video (no audio
because I had not picked up the right cable at the time). Nice. So, I
brought it all down and attacked the Lirc stuff.
