Subject: [mythtv] TV Card Recommendation
Sorry for such a newbie question to the developer list...
I am interested in trying out MythTV, but don't currently have a =
capture card. I am looking for the best quality at a reasonable price. =
When I say reasonable... I don't want to skimp on features but I don't =
want to spend $1000 either. What card does anyone recommend? Obviously =
Linux support is required, and my major reason for playing with MythTV =
is as a PVR / Tivo replacement.
Thanks in advance,
ams@base64.net
