MythTV on Fedora still rolls along, now in HD OTA

notes since the regular cable went away;

needed to switch to an external antenna.

Able to use the same external DVR box.
(has gone EOL, and been replaced by a newer version, but the old version still is supported by linux, and has firmware available)

one minor change needed to the setup.
(Suspect since still running on ancient AMD processor)

Some HD channel's sound was choppy, so increased caching setting, and that worked!

note:
of course HD is much larger, the expected 4x size increase means closer monitoring of disk space.

(have not upgraded to a 14TB !! disk yet, but looking at them ;)
