    Virgin Media, Kryptview and MythTV in a home network

    Good evening everyone - I'm hoping that I can persuade you to give me some much needed assistance and advice.

    My current setup is a VM XL package, with a V+ box in the living room, running a 50mb Superhub, and then 2 other normal STBs, one in a bedroom and one in a cellar room. We also have 4 laptops and a couple of tablets knocking around that all use wireless at the moment. There is also about 8tb of media files sat in external hard drives that are not connected to anything at the moment.

    I want to keep the VM cable broadband speed, but lose the VM TV costs and switch to Kryptview boxes around the house instead. I have no idea if I need to keep a basic VM TV service or if I can cancel the TV part completely and just keep the BB / telephone and then pick up the signal via the Kryptview boxes.

    I also want to have a Myth TV system so knowing how to combine a Kryptview box and a Myth TV system is beyond me - can you have one Kryptview box that runs into a Myth TV backend server with multiple cards which can then be shared to frontends around the house? Or do I need multiple Kryptview boxes?

    I'm based in Manchester and if there are any members who are local and can help, I'd be more than willing to pay for some assistance in knowing the best way to do things and also advice on hardware and system setups.

    Cheers
