Anyone watching digital TV on their Linux box? I've been thinking of
doing this for a while. I have my trusty Pace Twin PVR, but recording on
the PC would allow for easier archiving to DVD.

There's a load of info at

http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki

I'd be looking for a PCI card, but USB could be an option if I could
resolve the issue with consistently detecting my USB 2.0 PCI card. It
doesn't have to have an analogue tuner. I've seen various cards around
the £40 mark with USB options a bit cheaper. Any recommendations? I'd be
looking at using it from my current Ubuntu install rather than using
something like one of the dedicated MythTV distros.

I might be tempted to lug my box down to the LUG tonight if someone
could help me diagnose the USB issue and also why the keyboard is
completely dead when my wife logs into her account.
