    For anyone who is interested turning a Raspberry Pi into a catch-up box, having done so, I can confirm that it is easy and fairly quick to do and it works very effectively (especially if you want to use a smartphone to control it).
    There's love in this world for everyone. Every rascal and son of a gun.
    It's for the many and not the few. Be sure it's out there looking for you.
    In every town, in every state. In every house and every gate.
    Wth every precious smile you make. And every act of kindness.

    But I may just get this box too...

    I'm thinking of doing this and found some useful info online on how to set it all up.

    However I'd like to also receive live TV which can be done using TVCatchup (despite the name this isn't catchup content, but actually live TV and it is legal!). Again this is possible, but I'm holding fire as I'd also like to be able to record!
