I have a computer which is in my arcade and I want to run mythtv as well.
I would like it to encode as my master backend, however this is not
critical as I already have one setup. The specs of the computer are:
Duron 1200+ (900MHz)
128 Mb Ram
Ati Rage Mobility with TV out
40GB hard drive
I have an extra 80 GB on my desktop for myth already, so I can move that
to that hard drive.
Is the Duron fast enough to record and playback at the same time? I doubt
it is.
Should I upgrade the processor or should I get a PVR-250?
Is the PVR-350 worth the upgrade?
If I upgrade to a 1.4GHz T-bird will that be fast enough?
If I get the PVR-250 do I still need more ram?
Thanks and sorry for all the questions.
Keir
