[sllug-members]: MythTV setup Qs

[Steve Dibb]

1) Has anyone used SuSE 10.1 for a MythTV setup?  How did you like it 
vs. other distros.

I've only ever used Gentoo on mine.  No matter what, its a total pain to 
setup, but once you get it working how you like, *don't touch*.

2) Is it better to setup MythTV using a 32bit or 64bit distro.  I have 
had problems getting 32bit windows codecs to run properly with some 
media players on a 64bit box, that's why I ask...

win32codecs is irrelevant on myth on amd64, unless you're going to run 
mythvideo to play other files.  But, amd64 is fine for myth since all 
the codecs are compiled for that arch anyway.
