route I've gone.</blockquote><div><br>I am still pretty new to MythTV & don't have a system up & running yet - waiting on my usb tv tuner to ship in. I have only 1 TV and based on what I've read and understood so far about MythTV - I'm planning to connect the tuner to a laptop and use that laptop as the frontend+backend, I believe this is the default config for the the Mythbuntu installation. Having just 1 tuner might be restrictive; if I can get all of this going and at some point need to get additional tuners or split the frontend-backend, I'll do it. <br>
So while its not necessary to have a separate forntend and backend, the MythTV architecture is flexible enough to support several different configurations. <br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
