Oh sorry. I thought we were going to use the mythtv code to get nvrec to
work, but that in order to record and playback at the same time (to get
instant replays and things like that) we would need a much faster machine
than 400 MHz.

Well, considering I'm running (and developing) on a Celeron 400; I
would prefer if we don't forget about people on slower machines. I
have newer hardware, but Freevo is a good use for an older PC.

That said, if we use MythTV; there will still be the option to use
nuvrec for slower machines, so don't count them out.
