If you want to record digital TV, get a digital TV tuner (which the HVR-1950 is). However, my point was that MythTV is not designed to record arbitrary video. It is designed to record scheduled television with guide data. You can use it to manually record off all those other devices, but you would be much better off with a simpler utility. The HVR-1950 will create a device node, /dev/video0, on your system. You can simply concatenate that to a file to produce an MPEG2 video. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users [at] mythtv http://www.mythtv.org/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
