:: Overview

    First and foremost, MythTV is a digital video recorder (DVR), not 
unlike TiVo -- both even run on top of Linux.

    But if you're not too keen on the idea of a monthly fee, dislike 
encumbered access to content you've legitimately recorded, or want the 
freedom to tinker with and expand the capabilities of your DVR without 
limitation, a TiVo may not be for you.  For most Linux users, chances 
are, Microsoft's Windows XP Media Center Edition (or anything that runs 
on Windows) isn't the ticket either.

    Ever heard of someone exporting video from their DVR to a video iPod 
with only two button presses on a remote?

    How about watching high definition television recordings without 
having to lift a finger to skip commercials?

    Want to have multiple televisions in your house all able to watch 
the same pool of recorded content?

    Want to watch that same content on the deck, streamed wirelessly to 
your laptop?

    MythTV can do all that and more.  Come find out how!
