So, As I mentionned a few weeks ago I have been looking at finally 
getting my act together
and getting this pcHDTV up.

given the computer population around here it looks like the best use 
for it would be to run
a mythtv server on my newly acquired BSD system, and let family 
members run
mythtv clients on their OS-X laptops.

my first question is just for pointers.. do people have any tips on 
versions,
patches or even pointers to docs I may have missed.
