I hear you there.  Ive been using linux for 5 years and my head still
spins sometimes when trying to figure out how to use certain programs.
Myth is great and all, but is very difficult to get up and running.
Undocumented setup, cryptic language, and features all add to the
frustration level. Even some of the features and checkboxes I see going
through mythsetup I have absolutely no idea what theyre for, even after
using myth on and off for a couple years.

Dont take this the wrong way, Im Definately NOT bashing though, I love
it when its finally up and running as intended. Just constructive criticism.

Anyone ever thought of a video tutorial for setup steps?  Thought just
crossed my mind, I may work on it for ubuntu in my spare time.
