Thanks for the tip! I'm working on a project to use MPlayer as one of
the core components in a TiVo-capable linux box (using a TV+remote),
check out http://freevo.sourceforge.net. The software is in beta, but it
is usuable. It can record TV in realtime (320x240 XviD MPEG-4 on
P3/450MHz), but nuppelvideo+mplayer is probably better for timeshifting.
I tested NUVrec (from NVrec) + MPlayer briefly, and it'd be nice to have
MPlayer not exit at the end of the file, instead just reading new data
as the file grows. Is there a switch for that (shame on me, I didn't
read the fine manual :-), or is it being worked on?

Is there a problem with some/many/most soundcards that they can't do
full duplex audio? That is, record something on line-in and play back
something else on line-out?
