[mythtv-users] Any difference which MX440 card I get?

[David Lyons]

I have the PNY G-Force 440 (64MB DDR) Video out (RCA) to my 50" TV (not
yet S-video) and I am very happy with it.

The picture quality between that card and my Panasonic RP-62 is equal
when playing a DVD using the Video out on both players.

I have yet to look at quality using S-Video, since my home receiver does
not support it, and I have not gotten around to sending it directly to
my TV using the proper inputs.

I can not speak about the Chaintech's card. 

Dave

I don't really have any experience with either brand.  I was hoping
someone
on the list had and could tell me if the TV out on either one was better
or
the same as the other.  I don't mind spending some extra money for a
decent
TV out but I just don't want to buy all of them and experiment to find
out.

Thanks
