I have been using deb-multimedia for years but it suffers from being, sometimes, more stable than <br>
Debian. To get anything that is more modern one has to roll it oneself.<br>
<br>
I have had a look at "how to build mythtv on Debian" and had mixed results. There are some things in <br>
that wiki that are not up to date either, and I ended up with two copies because the packaging <br>
script has odd defaults and "git clones" again. Worse, it gives the .debs Ubuntu labels! At that <br>
point I stopped.<br>
<br>
Regrettably I am too busy to progress that any further or I would contribute. Meanwhile I am stuck <br>
on v30.<br>
