Now anyone here can jump in to tell me whether the MythTV project has anything going with the Hauppauge HD-PVR2. And how soon Linux will be able to "just play" a Blu-Ray disk, either commercial or one of my home-burn jobs.
The new hauppauge units don't have linux support, but I've been using my (older model) hauppauge 1212 HD-PVR to capture protected programs off my TiVo (component video connection, so no encryption) for a few weeks. It is a little flaky (a lot flaky till I updated the firmware), but it seems to mostly work OK.
You shouldn't have a problem "just playing" a home-burn Blu-Ray (at least if you install all the mplayer bits from rpmfusion), commercial DRM protected ones, I don't know about.
You wouldn't have a nice big "yum -y install" command that would cover those "mplayer bits," would you?
This new machine I just installed F20 on, has an optical drive that can read Blu-ray disks. But when I insert one, of any description, it will not recognize it as a "new device." It just sits there, waiting for me to hit the eject button on the drive and get it out of there.
