With Linux and this Plextor ConvertX DVR - turn your PS3 into a Personal Video Recorder!

The Ultimate PVR for the PC

The Plextor ConvertX PVR model PX-TV402U is the ultimate personal video recorder for the PC. The PX-TV402U allows you to connect to a satellite TV, cable TV or broadcast TV signal and record programs to your PC. You can then watch the video from the PC or burn it to DVD for playback on a DVD player. You can also connect a camcorder, VCR or DVD player to record home videos to the PC. The heart of the PX-TV402U is its multi-format encoder chip which converts video to the DivX®, MPEG-4, MPEG-2 and MPEG-1 formats as it is being recorded to the PC.

The PX-TV402U is the world’s first DivX Certified PVR. Recording video in the DivX format gives users the ability to record 3 times as much video as normal without sacrificing quality. It also gives you the ability to record video into resolutions perfectly suited for playback on portable and handheld devices. The PX-TV402U contains an integrated high quality TV tuner to assure the highest quality video. The PX-TV402U is an external USB 2.0 device which connects to a PC running Windows 2000 or Windows XP.

GO7007 Driver for PS3 Linux




Introduction

MythTV runs on PS3 Linux with Plextor ConvertX TV402U and GO7007 Video4Linux2 driver.

Visit my blog entry (in Japanese): Hogememo: MythTV on PS3 Linux

Patches GO7007 driver lacks compat ioctl routines for 32bit userland/64bit kernel configuration. And Video4Linux2's compat-ioctl32.c seems quite incomplete. These patches fix the problem on PS3 Linux. Not yet tested well, it just works for me.

• ps3-go7007.patch: Patch against wis-go7007-linux-0.9.8.tar.bz2.
• ps3-compat-ioctl32.patch: Patch against linux-20061208.tar.bz2.

Of course, there's no problem with ppc64 userland on ppc64 kernel.

that ain't "modding" the ps3. Looks like it just makes it into an expensive, ****tier tivo.
