[BozemanLUG] January BozemanLUG Meeting

Yep, we're planning to bring some stuff to show off and talk about.  :)

We'll jump into MythTV and its various configurations (multiple
backends and frontends), and use our personal setups as examples.
We'll dig into some of the tools that make MythTV so powerful, such as
mythcommflag, mythweb, and schedulesdirect.  If we have time, we'll
also talk about other projects like LinuxMCE and how they compare with
MythTV.

We'll talk about the hdhomerun, a networkable HDTV and QAM (digital
cable tv) tuner, and have one to show off and play with.  We'll talk
about the state of Bresnan cable TV in Bozeman (including channel
maps), and the state of over-the-air HDTV in our area.  There is also
alot more data than just video being passed over HDTV stations, and
we'll use a debugging tool to dig into some raw live HDTV feeds.

See you all on campus in EPS259 tonight.  :)

I was hoping to get Justin Krohn and/or Jeffrey Sharkey to talk about their HDHomeRun networkable tuners but I haven't heard back from them yet on it.
