All change
Well since November, I've:
I must admit that the WAF was real low during the idle-shutdown changes that I made as the system needed administrator intervention to bring up the front-end successfully. This was mostly due to the Shuttle's FSB bug. However, once that was fixed and a few automation scripts were smoothed out, WAF rose to an all-time high.
- Upgraded to MythTV 0.20
- Moved to using the OpenGL painter
- Managed to get the internal video player working nicely with (compressed) HD content and digital audio out - requires at least 32Mb of AGP Video RAM
- Implemented a fully idle-managed system with automatic startup and shutdown
- Fixed the Shuttle ZEN boot-up FSB hardware fault that affects almost all of these boxes
- Used LIRC magic to make the back-end seamlessly relay remote signals to the front-end
