  • Tvtime Vs Mythtv

    From The Millionaire@VERT/PARKAVE to All on Sunday, September 30, 2007 14:08:00
    Which do you think is your tv software to use? I like Tvtime because it is compatible with my Hauppauge USB Tv Card. I haven't tried Mythtv because it
    is so complicated.

    I had one of those Hauppauge TV cards before. It was very buggy.

    tvtime doesn't support the ATI 8500DV card (see under GATOS)

    IN fact, I don't think MythTV does either. I'd love to hear from anyone
    who has either MythTV or TvTime working on this card.

    Freevo is what I used and I liked it.

    Ah never tried that one. Is it hard to set up and is it compatible with the Hauppauge WINTV HVR950 USB?

    I found it simple to set up. I used mplayer as the workhorse, mplayer uses V4L, so if there's a V4L driver, it supports it.

    Well my tv card uses the em28xx driver. So I dunno.
