From DIY PVR DVR HTPC Wiki
Welcome to the DIY PVR DVR HTPC Wiki, brought to you by: Build Your Own PVR Site (http://www.byopvr.com/) & the Acronym Supporting Society :)
Besides being a tongue twister and a pain of an URL to type in, the DIY PVR DVR HTPC Wiki (DPDHW ?!) is meant to be a community grown documentation / Frequently Asked Question (FAQ) project.
Anything that's related to building/configuring homebrew tivo-like PC (or mac!) devices is fair game.
Generally FAQ on the BYOPVR Forum (http://forum.byopvr.com/dvr/) will get dedicated entries so one will never wonder again how a 125 channel TV tuner can handle digital cable or satellite channels numbering in the thousands, or what's the deal with HDTV DVRs, or how do I get channel listings?
If you're here to look for information you can try the search on the left hand side or browse the List of All Articles & FAQs.
You can see recent changes or newly added pages or wanted articles that need your help to flesh out!
Want to try editing a page, but aren't comfortable yet with the nuances of wiki (it's a little different than BBcode or raw html although some basic HTML *should* work in a pinch if that's more your speed!) play around freely in the SandBox. But don't be shy! See a typo? Please register, and then click on "edit" and fix it. Know of a link that would be useful to a given article? Go ahead and add it! Don't worry too much about formatting if you can't get the hang of it, someone else can always come by and fix up the presentation or add to your entry! That's the beauty of online collaboration via wiki!
