Why do we need anything beyond the xbmcmythtv script? Which I use and love on my hardware xbox, however can't get it to run yet on linux XBMC.

Freevo uses Myth for TV if I'm not mistaken.

Hm, I was alsways pretty sure freevo used it's own code for the livetv part - because they never like the ressource heavy MySQL + X-Server approach MythTv used and VDR was never that great to be integrated in a client-side frontend application.

Had a go at this today and when configuring the build it said it couldnt find libgmyth and that gmyth was now disabled. I have gmyth v0.7 installed. Is it incompatible (it was only released yesterday)??
Not sure why there hasnt been more discussion on this progress made by elupus.. I am very interested in the feature.
cheers
