A Yuletide Apocalypse

Building a Linux-based time-shifting box

To create a TV timeshifting box that will run unattended to capture the weekly programs of value to our household. Capturing individual programs is less of an issue, but it should be possible. Playback should be easy to achieve, but I don’t care if the record settings are particularly user-friendly, since I intend the box to capture basically the same programs every week.
