How about some details?<br><br>I've just set up a Pundit-S system that is stock ubuntu (Feisty) with 2 DVB-T cards and the only thing that makes it unreliable a bad signal.<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 9/18/07,

I was almost at the end of my MythTV project the other day. It's just<br>too temperamental for me. To many things still yet to do on it and each<br>time I try to sort something, something else breaks. And in amongst that
<br>I've got random crashes and random inability to watch anything but a<br>blank or scrambled screen. Followed by myth behaving perfectly for a<br>week before it all crumbles again without me touching anything.<br><br>
It's a shame, but on Sunday I even thought of just buying Windows media<br>centre and having done with it!<br><br>I've pulled myself together since then.<br><br>I simply don't have time to put such effort into a system. Something has
<br>got to change or I'll just buy a Freeview box or something.<br><br>I've gone back to basics however. Someone's due to be coming this<br>afternoon to check my signal. Once I know that's ok we can move on from
<br>there with baby steps. If he says that the signal is perfect, then I'll<br>probably format and try Mythbuntu and if that gives me the same trouble<br>then I think I'm out of her. In the past I'd have loved to spend day
<br>after day learning more and more about Linux and tweaking Myth. these<br>days, with a demanding job, 3 kids (one of which is just a month old)<br>there's just no time for a system that needs so much attention and<br>
demands the user to learn so much just to get it to work half ok.<br><br>Here's hoping that the ariel guy tells me that my signal is rubbish so<br>that my system is not totally to blame for all of the problems!<br><br>
