[Q] Suggestions for new project (with bounty)? topic






I'm looking at this inexpensive HDTV tuner/DVR. I'm guessing that they're ARM/Android-based but I'm going to buy one and open it up to see what's inside. It has all the makings of a cool, inexpensive little OTA DVR box - ATSC tuner, HDMI output, and a USB port for a TB storage drive. I originally bought the wrong (previous) model and played around with it. It was pretty responsive/seemed to have enough horsepower. Picture quality was good. DVR functionality didn't seem to work properly and the EPG was utter crap. If it's ARM/Android based and could be rooted, we could probably get XBMC on it and this thing would be a TiVo Roamio KILLER.

I could try to root it on my own but I've never done anything like that before and wouldn't know where to start. Can anyone point me toward any "how to root an Android device" resources?

I'm not without skills, but it would probably be better to just post a bounty and get help from the experts. What's the best way to go about doing something like that? What kinds of details do I need and how do I come up with the terms for the bounty? And WHERE would I post it?
