Most of the answers weren't always relevant to your question. It is
true to say (IMNSHO) that this mailing list is the best support
channel for mythtv as a whole. In particular:

* There are many knowledgable members, including a number of developers;

* It is well archived and searchable at gossamer threads (bless their
cotton socks)

* Many 3rd party addons are announced (if not de facto supported) here;

* There are users who use and support a wide variety of distros,
including, for example, the maintainer of the atrpms repo.

There are a few web forums besides the one you pointed to, mainly
distro oriented. For example there is mythbuntu forum, minimyth forum,
knoppmyth forum and so on. All have their uses and place, especially
for distro-peculiar problems.
