Hiyas.
I was doing some searching on mythtv working with the dbox... and I noticed a few of the peeps here were thinking about having a go...
well.. I've just managed to get mine working.

How did I do it?
Well... here it is, in a nutshell.
Download the mythtv 0.18.1 source code from here
Unpack it with tar -xvjpf mythtv-0.18.1.bz2
download the patch file from here
unpack the patch with
tar -xvjpf mythtv-dbox2-200508022011.patch.bz2
copy the patch into mythtv-0.18.1 with
cp mythtv-dbox2-200508022011.patch mythtv-0.18.1/.
cd mythtv-0.18.1 (i.e. cd to the directory where you unpacked the mythtv bz2 file into)
do:
patch -p1 < mythtv-dbox2-200508022011.patch
Then do:
./configure --enable-dbox2
then
qmake mythtv.pro
make
make install
and then... well if you got that far, have a cup of tea & pat yourself on the back!
Note: this will not work with Knoppmyth, so don't even think about it.
