<sect1>Using the DBoxII within MythTV
<p>The configuration of the DBoxII for use within MythTV is tricky (as of May 16 2005), that's why it's cove
red here.Your DBoxII has to be running linux and the Neutrino GUI instead of the stock BetaNova firmware. Fo
r further information, please refer to <url url="http://www.tuxbox.org" name="http://www.tuxbox.org">. Addit
ionally, you need to enable the SPTS mode in Neutrino.
1.) Add a new "Capture Card" in the setup. The "Card type" is "DBOX2 Input", the other values have to be
adjusted according to your setup. The default values, except for the "DBOX2 host ip", should work fine.
2.) Define a new video source. It doesn't need to be configured, you just need to define it. MythTV grabs
the EPG from the DBoxII.
3.) Connect the DBoxII to the newly defined input source in "input connections".
4.) Since channel scanning is not implemented yet, you need to define channels in the "Channel Editor". Make
sure that you use the same value for "Channel Name" as on the DBoxII. You can get a list of available chann
els from the web interface of Neutrino at http://ip-of-your-box:80/. Associate the channel with your new vid
eo source and repeat when needed.
You may leave the Setup now and proceed as usual.
