Hi,
I have as Asroc HTPC with a LiveCD installation running a recent build of XBMC taken from Git with patches for tickets 10923 and 10978.
I have an Elgato Hybrid USB DVB/T tuner module which I would like to use with this configuration. I know that XBMC can now act as a front end for a number of PVR solutions. I am not interested in the PVR application's own interface, but rather in it's integration into XBMC as an integrated solution.
So, what PVR solution would you folks recommend, and are there any HOWTO guides dealing with the installation ontop of a LiveCD installation for use with the above hardware. Testing each of the offerings would be quite time consuming, so I'd appreciate input on:
Thanks,
Steve

- Integration with the XBMC TV Shows library.
- Ease of navigation.
- Use of an EPG to record individual shows and series.
- HD compatibility (although I'm not sure if the Elgato Hybrid supports Freeview-HD).
- Support for DVB-S should I wish to add that.
Thanks,
Steve
