As a long-term MythTV user, I read all the discussion about Plex vs Jellyfin, but I’m still here… recording Live TV, watching films, listening to “me choonz” all on free, open-source software. What am I missing? Any other MythTV users out there?

I used to use MythTV back in the analog TV days. It’s much easier to use when you have proper cable channels. I couldn’t be bothered to pay >$140/mo for Cable TV any longer.
So now I just pay $60 for internet, and pirate everything I wanna watch with Sonarr/Radarr/Jellyfin/Jackett/Qbittorrent and a $2/mo VPN from Windscribe.
Honestly, with YouTube experimenting with ‘inline’ commercials, I think MythTV is going to make a comeback; because the big thing MythTV had going for it, was detecting commercials and removing them from the recordings.
oh wow, not in a long time…well over a decade…almost 2! i gave up on live tv around then
im usin kodi/jellyfin (plex is proprietary) mostly for the ‘pseudotv’ plugin… so i can have a cable-like system from my local storage
pseudotv is great i loved that software on xbmc. now i run dizquetv with plex. pretty similar functionality.
Right?
