Hi,

After having a similar experience, and even retrying many times with mythtv I seem to stick to freevo.

I dislike the idea of storing media info within a mysql database, I find freevo much better as its more of a glorified filemanager for music and media content. With installation and config fairly simple too.

Although MythTV seems to boast more features, of some I would love to see within freevo, I still stick with freevo.

Just my opinion. :)
