I heard you can send an email to yourself from another location and it will start recording, anyone know which this is?

I've used Snapstream a bit, but use nothing currently. They record it in US and you can download it.

250665 2004-07-08 23:03:00 Ive got MSIPVS software here...

Allows streaming over the web, time-shifting..

I bought an MSI Vox USB2.0 TV Capture device for $140ish, but you can get them about twenty bucks cheaper from Warp 9 (But warp9 were going to take a day to get it in).

Aside from that, there's always Bootable Linux distro's out there that do a real good job of that sorta thing :D

Everybody know's there's fridges with embedded devices.. Its just a matter of time before somebody makes an embedded Linux for them...

...Besides, thats just silly, what refridgerator would have a CD-Rom drive to boot from anyway ;-)

It is already on its way ... :D

Quote:
Red Hat recently unveiled its embedded plans, and everyone from Lynx to Linus has been talking about the "Linux Fridge". It seems that a group of engineers and programmers at Fujitsu created a smart fridge using Linux, complete with a web browser built into the door. At some point, I imagine, you will be able to link up to Homegrocer.com (through your fridge browser) and automatically have certain items "magically" appear at your doorstep. You may not realize the milk is gone, but your fridge will! Linus speculated, in his keynote, that the point might be to keep people from eating more, seeing that their time is occupied with using the browser. Quite possible.

Interesting... I guess another positive is that it won't be DRM crippled, eh? ;)
