For those that have used both, I'm wondering if anyone can explain your
experiences and compare/contrast these two pieces of software? Both
seem quite good. I played with Freevo for a few minutes on my PC at
work (no tuner card, but I'm able to test out movies/mp3/general
interface).
My general sense is that Freevo is less feature-filled than MythTV, but
it does feel a lot more solid to me. At least, it hasn't crashed on me,
whereas MythTV crashes regularly. Not a fair comparison, mind you,
since I've been using MythTV for 2 days and Freevo for 5 minutes. :)
Still, what are others' opinions? (I hope this question doesn't launch
any flame wars.)
Jason.
