This article or section needs to be expanded. Please help to fill the gaps or discuss the issue on the talk page



MythTV is a GPL licensed suite of programs that allow you to build the mythical home media convergence box on your own using Open Source software and operating systems. MythTV is known to workon Linux and Mac OS X (PowerPC and Intel). It does not run on Windows.

MythTV has a number of capabilities. See the mythtv website for details

http://www.mythtv.org/modules.php?name=MythFeatures
http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-1.html#ss1.1


Requirements

A separate workstation to watch the recordings

You should only run the backend of mythtv on your SME Server, You watch TV on other workstations on your network.

Hardware requirments
http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-3.html

[ would adding a dedicated hard drive formated as XFS and JFS be a good idea ? ]


Installation

There are a list of required rpms here, http://forums.contribs.org/index.php?topic=38591.msg175160#msg175160

Here are the mythtv/ivtv packages I've got installed on my smeserver (from atrpms).

  • libmyth-0.20.2_0-0.20.2-165.el4
  • libmythavcodec-0.20.2_0-0.20.2-165.el4
  • libmythavformat-0.20.2_0-0.20.2-165.el4

  • libmythfreemheg-0.20.2_0-0.20.2-165.el4
  • libmythlivemedia-0.20.2_0-0.20.2-165.el4

  • perl-Video-ivtv-0.13-8.el4.at

If I remember correctly I needed the frontend package in order to load some of the graphical libraries needed to run mythtvsetup. Beyond installing the above (plus dependencies) I enabled X11 forwarding and configured the system from one of the remote frontends.

Usage

Refer to MythTV Documentation ?
Explain a little about setting up the Frontend ?
