| | EFF: Cooking with EFF: KnoppMyth r5a10 and pcHDTV for DTV Liberation |
 | | MythTV's developer Isaac Richards decided to create "the mythical convergence box" -- a computer -- -- software application that would bring many entertainment and media functions, including the personal video recorder (PVR) functionality made famous by TiVo, into the PC while preserving the end user's choice and control. |
 | | MythTV is a multifunction entertainment center application that teaches your computer to act like a PVR, CD jukebox, photo show, weather station, and much more. |
 | | It is also possible to install MythTV onto an existing Linux system; if you are proficient with some particular Linux distribution, and especially if you already have one installed on a machine to which you'd like to add MythTV, you might want to use that instead of installing with KnoppMyth. |
