Online information is too > scattered, too old, and too unreliable; Perhaps this is stating the obvious, but I'd head over to the MythTV Users list archives and do some data mining in the postings from the last 6 months. Front-end and back-end hardware recommendations is a perpetual topic there. Pick something that you see multiple people both recommending and claiming to have successfully used themselves. As long as you don't have some out-of-the-mainstream needs, this should lead you to a working solution. While DVR usage may be tailing off, the MythTV Users list is still high volume, and presumably still has a sizable user base, so there's no reason why you should need to be a pioneer with new hardware, unless that's something you want to do. -Tom -- Tom Metro Venture Logic, Newton, MA, USA "Enterprise solutions through open source."
