New Version of MythTV .21 Released

V.21 of MythTV was released the 8th of March. Release notes are here. It has been a while since the last update and the developers have gifted us with many changes. Most exciting to me is the addition of volume groups. This means that MythTV can be set up to manage and record on multiple drives without using RAID or LVM. This means less complexity and the ease of adding or removing a drive depending on your storage needs. Mythweb has been improved and features added like a streaming window you your recordings that can be played in the browser. Another claim is that the frontend memory has been reduced by 75%.

When this is added to the source repositories I will do a review on all of the changes and improvements to give you my take.
