Is there a comprehensive guide on "How To" use and manage Mythbuntu? How do I learn "How To" do things like tune channels, make and manage recordings, watch one channel while recording another, and all the tweaks and methods by which one makes this resource perform to its capability? Does there exist a "User's Manual" for MythTV that provides this info?
A newbie needs to know.

There are fairly comprehensive docs at mythtv.org and a full walkthrough install manual at mythbuntu.org.

Cheers!

I posted this in your other thread. Not comprehensive but a good start:

Once you are up and running, please do contribute back to documentation. People new to these types of things are the best ones to add content where they saw pain points.

Will do. And again, thanks to those who helped, especially newlinux, tgm4883, and nickrout who provided patient guidance to this newbie.

Hi Superm1,
