Por causa dos codecs de vídeo que são enviados. Algumas delas NÃO são de código aberto e NÃO são gratuitas e para que o software esteja no Universo, ele precisa ser completamente gratuito.
Isso em MythTV também será um impedimento:
OpenCable devices are available to access encrypted content on U.S. cable systems, but as this is a full DRM system, and not just CA like DVB CI, every piece of hardware and software on the playback chain must be tested and licensed by CableLabs. At current, Windows Media Center is the only DVR software to meet these requirements, and only it, and other software using its recording libraries, can use these devices. In 2010, CableLabs relaxed the DRM restrictions allowing unlicensed devices to record copy freely content using these devices, however it is still entirely up to cable operators what content they provide flagged as such.
