MythTV is a Free Open Source software digital video recorder (DVR) project distributed under the terms of the GNU GPL. It has been under heavy development since 2002, and now contains most features one would expect from a good DVR. It is a great alternative to TiVo and can easily be deployed by a Novice on a PC or Mac.
- Pause live TV
- Schedule programs to record
- Watch one program while recording another
- Manage your digital library of music and video
MythTV is not a device. MythTV is not an Operating System. MythTV is software that runs under Linux or Macintosh.
You can buy a prebuilt DVR already running MythTV and use it as a TiVo like device without having any knowledge of Linux or the underlying operating system. Several companies sell MythTV based devices.
