SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Tired of TiVo (news - web sites)'s monthly fees and eager for even more control over their television programs, computer enthusiasts are building TV recording devices out of personal computers and new software packages.

.... snip....

Two alternatives are SnapStream's Beyond TV 3, available for download (http://www.snapstream.com) for $59.99 (or $69.99 if you need a CD-ROM), and Frey Technologies LLC's SageTV 2, for $79.95.

Free options are also available, including MythTV, described on its Web site (http://www.mythtv.org) as "a homebrew PVR project I've been working on in my spare time."

Along with their software, Frey and SnapStream both have "bundles" of TV tuner cards, which offer a good deal and help ensure that your new "PVR PC" will work as expected. You can also buy remote controls that free you to operate your new TV device without clicking on a mouse or punching on a keyboard.

Those software packages serve as your main screen for viewing television and scheduling recordings.
