Dale and I will have a booth at SCALE X4! We will be demonstrating KnoppMyth and MythTV. In addition, we'll be raffling off the demo systems! Both are dual tuner systems, one being HD capable. I'll post more details on the systems shortly. In addition, we'll be showing a demo of the new installer.

Nice. Too bad I live on the east coast or I'd stop by and say hi.

Good luck at the show. :D

Thanks! But don't let being on the east coast stop you from purchasing a raffle ticket.

Post subject:  make donation button produces paypal 'abort'

I went to buy some tickets for the raffle and clicked on the 'make a donation' button at the bottom of http://mysettopbox.tv/raffle.html. Paypal came back with this error:
"We are sorry, we are experiencing temporary difficulties. Please try again later. If this error occurred while making a payment, avoid duplicate payments by checking your Account Overview before resending a payment.

Message 5302"

If I click on the 'make a donation' button on http://mysettopbox.tv/knoppmyth.html I get to the paypal page to make a donation.

I would like to buy some tickets but I am concerned that the other button will not convey the right information to the knoppmyth folks that I want to be entered in the raffle.

Please advise.

Thanks.

Thanks. I'll take a look at the button. If you use the button on the knoppmyth.html page, be sure to send me an email stating that it is for the raffle and how much tickets you want.

I've fixed the link. Thru the link, you can only purchase one ticket at a time. If you'd like to purchase more, you the other button and let me know how many you'd like. Thanks for supporting KnoppMyth.

Damn! If I match the first 4 numbers do I win a free .iso of the next release with 0.19? :-) (No this is not a hurry up)

only the first 4? I matched the first 5 :cry:
since I was only one number off I suspect that makes my chances at the second drawing very slim. :lol:

SCALE was certainly fun! We met some great folks and hopfully some new users. I think we had more folks come to our booth than most commerical vendors there (including Google)!
