[edit] Dvico remote

Cleary, I'm confident that you don't need to load a kernel module for the dvico remote besides the lirc module. Could you please confirm when you have time? Thanks :)

EDIT: Take a look at the LIRC website, it seems to confirm my above statement.

cleary edit: confirmed, sorry I haven't been back here in years...

[edit] Table header background

Dedge Edit: No worries, thanks for pointing it out

[edit] Testing XvMC with mplayer

Might be handy to add somewhere that

• mplayer -vo xvmc -vc ffmpeg12mc dvd://

is a great way to test if xvmc is working properly on the system before reconfiguring mythfrontend. Took me a while to figure out that just -vo xvmc wont work (thought there was an issue with xvmc) - need to specify the codec too

[edit] Tables gotta go

Hi all. While they might have been a good idea originally, the tables throughout these pages really have to go. They're big and clumsy and atrocious to try and edit — especially for newbies.

[edit] EPG

Currently it always annoys me trying to guess what goes where each time I rebuild
