Tivo vs MythTV (was: *pout* HDTV No Recordee....)

[Travis Roy]

If you want the best how-to for MythTV for just getting a box up and  
working then this is it:

I used it the two times I set up a myth box and it was great.

But having a Tivo that "just works" and as somebody that loves the  
suggestions feature (something MythTV didn't have at the time, and  
I'm not sure if it does now) I stopped using  MythTV. That and I had  
stability problems. But this was 2-3 years ago.
