      Man I haven’t thought about mythtv for at least 15 years, the last time I paid for cable. Ran off 2 expensive ass cablecard tuners that I spent a solid week tweaking to get it to work right lmao

      I’ve carried my TV tuner from MythTV to Plex to Jellyfin, and I must say MythTV was the most stable by far. The latter two will throw a random error half the time, and the other half it breaks within 5 minutes.

        at one point i had 3 tuners in a box grabbing satellite/cable/ota

        but storage was expensive back then. ack. while recording all that i started thinking… how am i going to organize all this shit. which lead to many a nas.

        i went from myth --> sagetv --> xbmc/emby (ha, now kodi/jellyfin)

        i miss sage… it was great, modern… lightweight. google bought the company for their code and killed it outright.
