[mythtvnz] How good is WAF on MythTV?

[Robert Fisher]

I want FreeView terrestrial (Sky I can get via analogue, or HDMI in the
lounge)

Does MythTV provide all of the controls and interface to the HDHomeruns?
Does that work over a wireless dongle or is that not fast enough?

It might be time we had a beer at your place Nick.
