[mythtv-users] disabling unused parts

[David]

Have a look at http://www.cardhouse.com/otto/

It's an excellent MP3 jukebox with a web frontend.

It'd be nuts to install MythTV just for the music ;)
(Mind you it does let you have the cool lightshow on the telly)

If you really want a simple install then download and run KnoppMyth
(http://mysettopbox.tv/knoppmyth.html) straight from the CD - no install
needed - really!!!
