</div></div> If you can't play what you record then it's a bit academic.<br></blockquote><div><br>So you're claiming that the iPad can't ever be used to play MythTV files purely because the code doesn't currently exist? Because obviously the hardware capabilities are sufficient for at least some people's setups. Your argument amounts to saying that no one should write the code because the code hasn't been written.<br>
