I checked out mythdora but could not find any rpms to install.
Apparently you have to create an iso DVD and install a whole new
operating system (based on Fedora 8). I'm not ready to destroy a working
system just to try it out. I've tried DVD's like mythknoppix but they
never worked.

I happened upon the "solution" to the libmp4ff.so.0 dependency. I have
to remove faad2 from livna, then disable the livna repository, enable
ATrpm repository, and then mythtv should install without this error.

Unfortunately, removing faad2 requires removing most everything else
that works (like xine, mplayer, various codecs, etc.). So apparently I
have to destroy a working system just because of one dependency. If I
didn't have a working system, I would be willing to try it. I'm not sure
why it has to be so difficult.

I'll ask again: Does anyone know of any stand-alone program to record
the HDTV data stream to a file (other than getatsc or pchdtvr)?
