Now my big questions, since I can't make the meeting due to other commitments, is as follows: - do people use their TiVo remotes with Myth? - anyone hack a TiVo to be a Myth frontend box? - which capture cards work with Digital cable? - does it need to be downstream of the cable box? I was just at my mom's house and she has a new Sony LCD HD TV. Realize that my mom is clueless about technology, so much so that they took advantage of her and sold her a Toshiba HD DVD player too. Sigh... All she wants is a big screen so she can watch TV and DVDs. That's it. Now she has to juggle three friggin remotes to do this. A logitech Harmony remote is in her future I think. :] But this just shows how complicated it can be to setup a simple setup. So, how do people deal with multiple inputs, remotes, digital/analog cable, etc. All in regards to Myth, since when my TiVo finally bites the dust, I'll need to put something up ASAP to keep the family happy.
