Well, 'go to the source, young Skywalker'
. But I can and did that with MythTV couple of years ago, exactly because they cut new releases once in 2-3 _years_. I was looking for a bit less time consuming way if possible. But generally going to the source is not a problem (if it does compile 'out of the box' under Ubuntu 8.1).
But here are a bunch of other questions then:
- how often do PPAs get updated? Are 'new features' / hotfixes are being pushed out on a regular basis (once a week/biweekly), like it's done in MythBuntu project?
- if I'm going to the source, are there 'stable' tags created once in a while, or there is only the 'official release' and the 'trunk' (active development branch)? I don't want to pick up some unstable features or new bugs and always be in the state of patching this or the other feature...
Thanks for replies! And another thanks to all the developers for seemingly the great app - I've been using Freevo for over a year till recently - when my old server died - and MythTV before that - both are great apps (if you don't mind fiddling with setup or source build), but they do look a bit unpolished to compare with XBMC (especially MythTV).
