Hi Folks,
is a question special to centos-user in germany I think. I use centos on a desktop-system (yes, I know that centos is special for servers) and I watch TV with an anaolg card. The qualitiy is not so high. Now, I'm planning the use of an DVB-T Adapter. My question: There are any experience or knowing problems with these kind of adapters and centos? And which Adapter is recommendable?
Thx Timothy
On my HDTV box I use: - CentOS-4 - recompiled kernel from FC4 - nvidia binary x11 driver - mplayer from RPMForge - lirc from atrpms - mythtv compiled from source
It is a fair amount of work to set up and I don't have any documentation.
Perhaps CentOS-4 is not the best choice for this purpose.
John.

Hi John,
thanks for your advice I think, I will leave it ;-)
I've been trying to set up a DVB-T MythTV backend on a 4.4 box recently. I found I needed to install a new kernel to pick up fixes for DVB support and for my DVB-T cards. That's as far as I've got right now, but I'm going to stick with 4.4 for the moment. If I can't get it working by the end of the month then I'll probably try FC6 when it comes out.
