[mythtv-users] he shoots. he scores!

[IvanK.]

Simon,

no problem.

Regarding the TV-out quality, any reason you're using the epia-m9000 thingie 
instead of the PVR-350 (I assume you have one from the line "encoding with a 
350")?

Someone correct me, but the PVR-350 blows anything else clear out of the 
water.  In fact, I myself am using it and can say only good (make that very 
very good) words about it.

If you're interested, have a look at:

http://ivtv.writeme.ch/tiki-index.php?page=TvOutHowto (shameless plug 
here :-))

and complement that with:
http://ivtv.writeme.ch/tiki-index.php?page=TvOutPal (I'm assuming you're using 
PAL)

Best of luck,
IvanK.
