If you ever decide to drop your TiVO subscription and centralize your capture efforts and media collection, MythTV is really the way to go. I, too, have gone through the nightmare of trying to get it to work. BUT -- someone has made a working Knoppix-based Myth installer, called KnoppMyth. You boot up raw hardware (no OS needed) off this CD and it takes it from there. Basically converts any PC with a tv capture card and s-video out into a tricked out no-sub TiVO. Try it sometime. You might be impressed.

Yeah It gets mentioned in the comments quite often, I'm just waiting for the day it gets a front page appearance, because I know the wiki will fall over in a second.

the backend requirements on the wiki are not much just php and mysql, the only problem being that it's completely DB driven, so any backup site would not have the latest info.
