Hi All
The subject is pretty confusing. I've ordered a Hauppauge DVD-T Nova-T
USB stick and I've downloaded a 7zip file with all the firmware files
required. I've been able to check that the firmware for the Nova-T is
now installed in /lib/firmware. What now?
Ok, eventually the TV tuner will arrive and I've also ordered a small TV
aerial. So, I connect the aerial to the tuner, connect the tuner to the
PC via a USB port. Then what? I gather there is a remote control with 45
buttons on it. Seems a lot to me.
I've found a web page about XBMC and I've succeeded in compiling xbmc
for my Linux desktop. The xbmc-bin file is gigantic: 145MB of binary and
it still requires 115 libraries! Do I have to have XBMC. What will it
enable me to do which I couldn't do without?
Has anybody on the list got TV on Linux and, if so, what did you do to
get it working? Any comments would be much appreciated (I don't have
room for a standalone TV set so TV on Linux is my only option).
Regards
