[Discuss] MythTV: from bad to worse. Start over?



Since no one else mentioned this option I'll mention Boxee.  It's basically
a polished fork of XBMC.  So no PVR functionality but it's other
functionality is pretty slick.  They do have something for watching live
over the air HD in the works.  I don't know if that will ever morph into
PVR functionality but that would be nice.

I too used to run MythTV but when we made the move to HD I didn't feel like
re-investing money into HD tuners that would have limited access to
programming.  So now we just have a HD DVR from DirectTV which is pretty
nice.  The one feature I really miss from MythTV though is it's ability to
flag and auto skip commercials.
