I agree with the paradigm, but there are two clear instances that interrupt my "perfect" world:<br>miss 4yr old, watching Kidzone on 6, when Myth is being used as a virtual baby sitter (Sigh)<br>Live netball, though now we tend to press record and jump into the recordings, coming up to date with ffwd in the ads.<br>
<br>So really - just on the advert free channels when blobbing out!<br><br>Barry<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009/7/6 David Lowe <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:david@thistledown.co.nz">david@thistledown.co.nz</a>></span><br>

The other point I'd make is that if you don't care about the "new paradigm", if Live TV is your main thing, then you're probably better off with a MySky box or another good PVR. Live TV is simply not one of MythTVs strengths. If you must have MythTV then it'll annoy you less if you make a conscious effort to adopt the paradigm and forget about LiveTV and to convince the other users in your household to do the same. </div>
</div></blockquote><div><br>I've been using MythTV for nearly two years & have found it hard to convince the family to adopt the new paradigm, until i hit on a solution... give them no choice. I had an old rear projection TV that I hated and gave away, planning to upgrade. While searching for the upgrade, I just put a 21" computer monitor in the lounge. No analogue receiver, no direct sky input, but a surprisingly clear and watchable picture... they had no choice but to use Myth (or as my daughter calls it 'Blue'. It's both a noun and a verb already!).<br>
<br>Three months later, still no 42" replacement and everyone has come to adopt the new paradigm.<br><br>But now the pressure is on to resolve some annoyances which I'll address in another post...<br><br>- David<br>
