Woops. This is what I meant to send....<br>
<br>
The thing is I don't want to record anything, just view live tv.
Essentially I'm trying to avoid buying a freeview decoder. <span
class="moz-smiley-s1"><span> :-) </span></span><br>
<br>
I'm picking I'll end up either with a Freeview tuner or a atom like
head unit in the lounge, or both.<br>
<br>
Preferably I would like to just have the PS3, then I don't have to keep
changing settings on the 42" plasma that we bought years ago (doesn't
do 1080p or have hdmi) but works well with component (RGB) video. <br>
<br>
It's also annoying having a remote for the tv, a remote for the PS3, a
remote for the stereo, and a remote for the sky reciever (and then
there's the remote for the DVD that plays the region 1 dvds....). I
know I'll only be changing one remote for another, but then at least I
don't pay $40 something to sky anymore....<br>
<br>
I did read that .22 did have planning for live tv, unless I read that
wrong (most likely).<br>

stream it via upnp (while it is recording)

At the moment I'm purely interested in the unpnp streaming of the live tv
from the dvb card.
The PS3 receives unpnp streams just fine, so that's what I want to display
the freeview on. Admittedly I'll have to get the myth box connected to a
wireless remote to change channels.... :-)

As you cannot / do not want to receive Freeview HD, AND if Linux ever
has a BLu-Ray player, you never want to use that either (I do not recall
the intel 945GC having enough grunt for anything useful like on GPU
video decoding), and the Atom is a very underpowered processor, then it
could be suitable...
Cheers

Having been a long time reader of this list and never actually doing
anything I have actually gotten around to actually building my mythtv
box and have got it all working.
Now I knew it had a unpnp streaming ability but didn't realize I
couldn't stream live tv 'out of the box' or so I am lead to believe.
Am I correct in this assumption or is it possible?
I have built this system from my old linux PC and is a little under
powered, however once this is proven one way or another I may install it
on my current linux PC which is much gruntier... I'm using mediatomb on
it now and it works well with my PS3.
If mythtv can't stream live tv then I was thinking of using this atom
powered shuttle box to view it instead.

Basically I want to drop sky soon, but I can only receive satellite
signals where I am, no possibility of terrestrial freeview I'm very sad
to say. :-(
