ZFS rocks for SageTV!

So, are you running SageDCT in a Windows VM, or on real hardware?

I wonder if Andy has the source published. Perhaps someone would be willing to write a native version..

PS - I would be interested in at a minimum lending a Ceton tuner to the job as well as donate to the cause.

having tried VBox (with the para-nic drivers) and Fusion with DCT, the only thing that keeps the stream jitter-free for me is a physical box. granted those VMs are on core2 architectures but that's all i have lying around...

i would also be willing to donate to the cause, having to have a windows box as an intermediary is sub-optimal... maybe even a port to mono?

So, can somebody explain what SageDCT actually does? Its just a proxy that goes from one network wire protocol (Sage network tuner) to another (Ceton / Silicon Dust Cable card DCT), right? Does it actually *do* anything, other than pass packets through?

Sounds like something somebody should be able to replicate in a few hundred lines of C.

Source code for sagemctuner is here http://babgvant.svn.sourceforge.net/...t/SageMCTuner/

It can demonstrate how a network tuner should operate. If you're interested in looking at this, I'll set you up on a test server or send some hardware. B

Unfortunately, I don't even have the time to do my own projects.

Is his SageDCT open source as well?
