Not sure if this is the correct thread to post this in...
I have heard about MythTV, the free software program that lets u record video and access online TV programs besides lots more ...
MythTV Website
What i want to know is...is it possible to install and run this program on a Windows machine? on their website, they have only given instructions to install on a linux machine.
If anyone has used this program please give ur feedback on it and also if it is possible to make it work on Windows.

To my knowledge it’s only for Linux (unless you want to run a front end for windows, which requires it set up on Linux anyway) but there are a few PVR programs similar for windows, for a pretty good list see: http://www.tucows.co...95_default.html (Sage and ChrisTV are two good ones that come to mind)

No, some are shareware (the ones I mentioned) and I’m not sure about the other ones. I’m trying to recall some of the free ones, but I haven’t used them for a while, if I remember the names I will post them here

Media Portal is OPEN SOURCE! 
http://mediaportal.sourceforge.net/
TIP: Site navigation is hard to spot, its near the top left of the page)
Its only 18.5MB and uses an MSI Installer, so Unattended should be no problem.

[EDIT] This definetly deserves its own post...

Media Portal turns your PC in a very advanced Multi MediaCenter / HTPC.
It allows you to listen to your favorite music & radio, watch your video's and DVD's, view, schedule and record live TV and much more. You get Media Portal for free/nothing/nada/noppes and best of all it is opensource. This means anyone can help developing Media Portal or tweak it for their own needs!
