Indeed, it's amazingly good at what it does. When I worked at the  
airport, I just told MythTV to automatically run it as a User Job and  
I'd watch Stewart and Colbert on the Light Rail on my way to work. If  
you can get your hands on the KnoppMyth script, it's a cinch,  
especially with the RSS feed. I know the maintainer of KnoppMyth hangs  
around in the MythTV Users IRC channel a lot. If you pop your head in  
there, he can probably direct you to the proper place to get the script.
