  1. Here's a great Linux PVR solution by oGMo · · Score: 4, Informative · on Turning the PC into a Digital Video Recorder

    Check out MythTV, from the author of Freeamp. It uses Linux, Qt, and a TV tuner card to provide an entire solution for dropping a box next to your TV. Here are a few features:

    • CD ripping and music playback (mp3, ogg, etc.)
    • Grabbing TV program information off the web
    • IR remote control support

    Other things such as support for various emulators are on the todo list. The frontend is rather pretty as well.

  4. a linux based PVR you might want to check out by mazeone · · Score: 5, Informative · on Turning the PC into a Digital Video Recorder

    There is a fairly neat open source PVR at mythtv.org. It is still rather early in development, but has neat features like an on-screen display, a program guide, pausing and rewinding of live TV, etc. Pretty neat stuff.
