There's this plugin that adds FM support, but I don't know if
anyone's gotten it to work in 0.19. I never got it working in 0.18,
but I honestly didn't try that hard.

Also, I see this:
[mythtv at mythtv ~]$ ls -l /dev | grep radio
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Mar 31 18:45 radio -> radio0
crw------- 1 mythtv root 81, 64 Mar 31 18:45 radio0
So I assume it's just a matter of tuning to the frequency you want
and playing it through to your audio device. But again.. there
doesn't appear to be enough interest to get it working and certainly
hasn't been enough to include it in the standard mythtv packages.
