Re: LINUX! Showshifter vs. Tivo - the final score, Sky + Wins
No one for linux has piped up yet :P
I know tivo runs linux but...
Anyway, Linux can run just like a tivo with a little configuration
of=
choice software and the like, plus if you know c programming you can
change=
everything to your exact needs (I didnt see any need to do this with my
theorised and researched config), I have recently fdisked the wrong
harddrive and as such dont have alist of the software and hardware
requirements but I am SURE you can do it for under the price of =A3400.
(I<=
BR>
will on a week off starting june 3rd be able to compile the
list/procedure<=
BR>
for doing this again) PLUS it can output an mpeg stream to any pc on
the
network :P
