Hi guys,

I have a cisco isb 6030 lying around for approx. a year now and thought that i could use it as a mythv frontend.
then i found your forum where I read that these boxes are not x86, so little chance. Then i dismantled my box and realised that its not a sigma chip but a broadcom 7405.
So I googled again and found that broadcom supports linux and also found two interesting hardwares:
- roku picture bridge hd (which already has mythfrontend ported to it and has mips architecture)
- hummy.tv (which is a broadcom 7405 based stb with a complete linux firmware modified to watch video over the lan)

what do you think can this three (cisco, roku, hummy something) be brought together?

I have some linux compiling skills, some arduino knowledge (for the ejtag and atmega) and am willing to try risky things because don't really care if I brick the thing. Its not much use to me now, so if I can come to something its nice but if I brick it I still can use the hard drive.
