This doesn't give a lot of technical information. How does tuning work 
(driver interface under Linux), where do we get the MPEG stream from 
(which device)?

In any case, I hope that Isaac's PVR and my DVB work do most of the 
group work required to support this, it should be fairly 
straight-forward for what MythTV is concerned, so anybody wanting to 
implement it would "only" have to implement the HDTV-specific part. 
(Which can still be some work, as I've noticed with DVB.)
