I think I'm sold on the Lava machine. I've read everything I can find about Lava MythTV frontends today, and most people seem to say that it's great. Hopefully I wont have some of the niggles that come people have had, but if I do, they didn't seem like the worse things in the world. I'm a bit worried about what some people have about the deinterlacing (VAAPI/VDPAU etc), but there's always a downside, unless you've got very deep pockets. I think I need to just 'such it and see' with that one.<br>
<br>
On to the question before I buy.<br>
<br>
Will the machine play internet based 'catch up' tv ok? Things like BBC's iPlayer and the ITV player. That's pretty much the only other thing I need the machine to do outside of being a MythTV frontend. I just wanted to ask in case playing that sort of footage, online, would be difficult for the system in some way.<br>
<br>
Let me know what you think.<br>
<br>
Oh, and is there any reason why I shouldn't order one from the USA (for UK use)? I'm asking in terms of the power supply. I don't want to buy it and then fry it!<br>
<br>
And I've just thought of another question!<br>
Would loading Ubuntu (and then Mythbunu on top) be fine with this machine?<br>
Or would it be significantly better to keep to a standard Mythbuntu insall (with Xfce)?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Damian<br>
