@fastjp72 No. My MythTV box doesn't have IOMMU on the motherboard, which would be necessary to access my video capture card (via PCI passthrough). Even if it did, I don't think VMs make much sense in applications that need to talk to special hardware (like a fancy video card for HD playback) or disk-intensive apps (like MythTV's commercial flagging and atrocious database update). Pretty much all my other servers do, though, including my Asterisk PBX.
@servicescloud Thanks! The songs are Naughty Hula Eyes, by Andy Iona And His Islanders, and Cocaine, by Dick Justice. Both songs are in the public domain.
Thank you so much for the video. It is great. I am currently working on a project where I want to use the most stable open source/free software solution virtualization. I has been thinking on deploying KVM + Libvirt but that command line vm-shell look even better for management. If you can shoot me a response with what will be the basic you recommend here I use Debian Linux not need all the mouse fire or even a gnome or kde. I look forward to your response. Thank you!!
@jairzhino I'm sorry to say I haven't had to time to maintain or promote vm-shell in the last few months. I'm hoping to come back to this project in a few months and launch an OSS project for it (and support services).
I presently use KVM for all my server VMs, and VirtualBox for desktop GUI app VMs. I have several KVM machines (on Ubuntu 8.10, 9.04, and 9.10) and they have been extremely stable. I use Ubuntu for everything: workstations, servers, MythTV, kid's machines, etc.
Do you run MythTV backend as a VM?
