I've been using it for 1 1/2 yr and extremely happy. The backend is rock solid and it never crashes/leaks/etcetc. But I never see any liveTV, actually, I never see the mythfrontend at all :-). I only use mythweb for all my scheduling etc. So, I've no issues with the livetv :-) <BR></DIV></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV>"homebrew...in my spare time" pretty much says, "I do this in my spare time to suit my own needs. If you'd like to use it too, great!" "quite usable and featureful" says to me, "Lots of people use it and there are a lot of features." which is true. It doesn't say it's the end-all-be-all of PVR software that meets everyone's needs. You need to pay a lot of money for that kind of marketing. :)</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV></BODY></HTML>
