I do not currently have a MythTV setup at home. (Though we're planning one
when we upgrade our Media PC.)
I do have a MediaMVP, though. It is a handy little gadget. For what it does,
it is very affordable and functional. It allows us to watch television in
our bedroom that was recorded in the living room and which has not been
burned to a DVD yet.
We've delayed going to MythTV primarily because of video capture driver
issues. That, and when you take a look at some of the great looking
dedicated devices that actually look like AV equipment and not just another
PC sitting around it made sense for us to hold out until we could just
upgrade the equipment entirely.
Cheers,
Steven Black
