As it should. That's normal behaviour. Myth is designed to be run using lirc
or the keyboard as an input device, on a stand-alone box.

Thanks for the answer. Problem is, I'm not like other people and watch
TV while working on the computer, not while just sitting idly by. Even
with that, the ability to record and do live pausing would be a
wonderful thing (I do have to leave the computer occasionally - my wife
insists on it :), thus I'm playing with MythTV. But I understand the
logic of the design decision.

Thanks,
Lonnie

Solved this. It just won't work with artsd. I tried to wrap it with
artsdsp, and it doesn't like it - don't know why (or really care at this
time). If I suspend artsd, then it works fine, and I found the
keystroke to make it a window, and change the channels. So far, so
good.

Is there a doc that lists all the keystrokes? For some reason lirc is
no longer working with my TV card's ir port. That's on my list of
"things to play with" (tm).


Thanks,
Lonnie

See, that's the problem. The filename is just too obvious. ;-)

Consider me chagrined for having asked the question.
