This sounds great!

Are many people using this repository with a standard Ubuntu install (as 
opposed to Mythbuntu)? I want to use it, but am also very nervous of it! 
I've had my fair share of problems with Myth which the geek within me 
doesn't mind too much because it helps me to learn faster, but the lady 
in my life gets frustrated if she's without her TV for long because my 
fiddling breaks it! :-)
