[ILUG] Linux HTPC

[O'Sullivan, Damian]

Hi,

Am thinking of implementing a MythTV based HTPC. This would mainly be
for playing mpegs and other files but I would like to build in some PVR
functionality too. I have Sky Digital and NTL basic. Anyone have any
recommendations on a good tuner(s) or ant tips/caveats to look out for?
At the moment I have a laptop (FC6 + Mplayer) to do the music/mpegs bit
but really want something remote based so I don't have to leave the
couch! Was going to buy a WiFi phone so I could control the laptop from
couch but I think a remote might be better!

Thanks,

D.
