Yes, the settings are on a per-channel basis. If you relly want to get 
your hands dirty (and do a a one setting for all thing) you can muck 
about in the Backend DB.

I am using a P3-550 with a bt878 (WinTV Theatre), its not fast enough to 
do live TV, but its suitable enough to record programs for a later 
viewing. MythTV is a beautiful thing.

Since we are on the subject of PVRs, is there some reason that some 
shows do a nice 4GB/hour, while different shows with the same settings 
can do upwards of 10GB+?
