Another MythTV Update

As promised, I have tested MythTV without a DM or WM running. I did not attempt to watch live TV, but to watch a pre-recorded show. First of all, I was shocked to see how much space it takes up. On the website they say it is about two GB per hour, but for a one hour show, it took up 26 GB. Considering that I only have a 46 GB partition, this is taking up tons of space.

Anyway, playback started with some slight pausing here and there, but it picked up and I was actually able to watch it without interuption. Pretty cool. I just need to get the size issue worked out now and I may actually be able to record shows like this :-)
