1. How to obtain this document.

This HOWTO document is maintained at the primary MythTV website: http://www.mythtv.org by Robert Kulagowski mailto:rkulagow@rocketmail.com. (Please note that I am NOT the author/programmer of the MythTV application! See the contributors section below for a list of the programmers.)

This document is available as a single-page HTML document at http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-singlehtml.html or as a PDF at http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO.pdf.

The latest version of this document can be found in CVS, accessible either through the ViewCVS web interface, or directly from the CVS repository. You may download the latest copy of MythTV and the documentation from CVS this way:

$ mkdir mythtv
$ cd mythtv
$ cvs -d :pserver:mythtv@cvs.mythtv.org:/var/lib/mythcvs login
Logging in to :pserver:mythtv@cvs.mythtv.org:/var/lib/mythcvs
CVS password: mythtv
$ cvs -z3 -d :pserver:mythtv@cvs.mythtv.org:/var/lib/mythcvs checkout mythtv
This documentation will be in the docs/ subdirectory.

The other MythTV modules may be downloaded from CVS the same way; replace "mythtv" with "mythweather", "mythgallery", "mythmusic", etc.

NOTE: If you are going to use CVS to compile MythTV rather than using the distribution tarball, it is strongly recommended that you join the http://www.snowman.net/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-commits/ and http://www.snowman.net/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-dev/ mailing list.

It's recommended that you join the user list at http://www.snowman.net/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users.

Searchable archives for the lists are available at http://www.gossamer-threads.com/archive/MythTV_C2/.

This HOWTO is for MythTV v0.10.
