[mythtv-users] Problems about radio!!

[Per Jørgensen]

Well thanks for the answer.

Well beginning scripting my own Radioplugin etc . Face it - Not that 
good! So either buy a tunercard to the frontend :-)
Or perhaps hoping to get mythTV Stream running on my machine!

That'll properly be the solution for my problems
Thanks again.
