Same ol’, same ol’
Things are going along pretty steadily for now. I am trying to get my laptop setup to be a TiVo of sorts. I’ve got a video capture device that, if I can get it working, will allow me to record TV shows on my laptop. I was going to use Windows Media Center Edition, but can’t get it to play DVDs on my laptop. So I’m going with a host of other programs that will eventually give me the same functionality. In addition I bought a cool remote control that I can use to run the MyHTPC application with. This is all thanks to Jess who gave me the info on all this stuff. Hopefully it all works out as my VCR has taken to eating tapes. This hinders the recording and playing back of my favorite shows. I’ll let you know how it goes.
