Mythtv with Arch

Has anyone used Arch to install Mythtv or do I need to use one of the Mythtv distro's? (mythbuntu,linhes..etc...)

Re: Mythtv with Arch

Been using Arch for a couple of years for a myth backend.  It's perfect for it.  But then.. Arch is perfect for everything

Here's a full backend build thread including wake on lan etc.  Documented to the nth degree.  Some of the info may be out of date now but it could be of use.

i would wait a bit to setup mythtv, 0.22 is at the door right now, and it brings big changes with it...

Still, .21 is very functional, and may give you some practice playing with it.  My wife didn't want that "ugly computer" (it isn't, it's in a beautiful Silverstone case ) in the front room when I started, now if the mythtv goes down for some reason it's a major issue.....It's easy to get spoiled.
