This is necessary to maintain protocol compatibility with Linux distributions, on which we're generally dependent for tuner functionality. Unfortunately, there's no distribution for this version, and it's already been overtaken. Watch this space. Submitted by: dmlb This also fixes a build error reported by pointyhat.

MythTV is a "Personal Video Recorder", i.e. a computer-based video
|
|
recorder. It supports pausing and rewinding live TV, multiple tuner
|
|
cards, hardware or software video compression, onscreen program guides
|
|
and a distributed architecture.
|
|
|
|
The current distributed version of MythTV
|
|
(http://www.mythtv.org/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=1)
|
|
is out of date for just about all platforms. It is also protocol
|
|
incompatible with the "bug fix" version, which is maintained under
|
|
subversion, rather like the FreeBSD -STABLE branch. This port is a
|
|
snapshot of svn version 13053, dated 15 March 2007. Later versions of
|
|
this tree are no longer compatible with this port.
|
|
|
|
MythTV requires tuner drivers which support the V4L standard.
|
|
Currently no official FreeBSD driver does so, but the latest version
|
|
of a beta version of the cxm driver is available from
|
|
http://usleepless.110mb.com/pvrxxx_port-10042007.tgz. Problems have
|
|
been reported with this port; if you use it, you should join the
|
|
FreeBSD-multimedia mailing list and report where appropriate.
