Myth Experience: I have been using myth since 0.13 (which is roughly about a year now). I consider myself a poor coder (but a great perl scripter) and never could really make a acceptable patch for the project, yet I have tweaked a few things to work better for me.

I have built 3 myth boxes (based on the same hardware). I have a wireless network between two of them (that only works when they are on the same floor of the house. :) ) I have used the LIRC to control my Dish Network box with my own IR "blaster". I am trying to figure out the best way (integrate with MythBurn???)to create dvds from my bttv capture card.

My myth boxes are currently based off of Mandrake 10.1 with myth compiled from source. I follow CVS on two boxes. I am also waiting for my HDTV capture card to come so I can delve into the world of HDTV on my 19 inch television ;)

UPDATE: I have succesfully managed to get the hd-3000 card to work on my myth box. It records great, however the lack of HD channels in my area is disturbing. I have lost slight interest in DVD burning since I have cleaned up my myth partition [[[(2005-01-27T15:14:29Z)]]

Hobbies: I enjoy playing with HTML/CSS/Javascript. I also like biking and skiing (yet skiing is too expensive). I am slowly picking up more hobbies since finishing college.

Comments: I gather the hot setup is MythDVDBurn, which someone mentioned on the list the other day, but I haven't looked into yet. -- Bay Link (2004-10-30T06:30:29Z)
