It still keeps on growing....
Just 1 Terratec Cinergy 1200 DVB-T card with 7 virtual tuners of which 3
are more or less 24/7 recording 3 TV channels off of one multiplex.
Back to back programs overlap 2 minutes max (1 minute at begin, 1 minute
at the end).
The machine has 1GB of RAM and is running on a VIA Epia EN12000.

# mythbackend --version
