[mythtv-users] IVTV and the Yuan MPG600GR

[Jonathan Harding]

I got my card from a store called J&P - they have a website that may or 
may not ship outside of Japan. 

Card is called KUROUTO SHIKOU CX23416GYC-STVLP

I looked at the pvr-150MC, but it doesn't appear to be low-profile. 

Jarod, any chance of posting those patched .2 drivers somewhere?

I will admit that I'm getting mighty tempted to buy a hauppauge 
pvr-150mce low profile card and see what mileage i can get.  Besides 
hauppauge's webstore, I've found it thus far at buy.com.

I guess i'll try out the latest rc of 0.2.0 tonight and see how things 
turn out.
