  1. My Setup - mythTV backend / XBMC frontend on The Mini-ITX Linux PVR Project · · Score: 1

    I didnt't see this comment - but I have had a hybrid mythtv system runnning for almost a year now. Backend - Cheap computer parts off ebay and basement AMD 1Gig - had to replace a burnt out chip on ebay $40 256 Ram 2 200 Gig Drives - I had to buy this cheap PVR 250 DVD drive - used to convert DVD to DIVX Debian / MythTV Torrent server running off RSS (SiFi Channel) FrontEnd Xbox - Softmode no HD replacement XBMC - IF you dont know what this is then its a sad day Mythtv Python Script run from XBMC Remote - remote for the XBOX so I could use the same one for TV/XBOX Thats it! To program my Mythtv I just update recording info via Firefox anywhere. My only comment is that once you get it running DONT apt-get any new versions of MYTHTV because sometime upgrades blow up your database. Other than that I think I might get the new HD encoder that works with Linux or just another PVR250 ($80) Later - I need to check my recorded show tonight from work...

  2. Other choice than Trustic - SPAMCOP on O'Reilly Article on Spam Defense · · Score: 2, Informative

    I have been using SPAMCop for the past 5 months at my work. I am also using QMAIL as my mail server and it took me about 10 minutes to get it hooked into the Spam Cop Database. The best part it is free and it it blocks about %80 of SPAM that gets delivered - I will just have to live with the other %20. Has anyone heard of other Spam IP Databases that are available for public use?
