I'm looking to build the following MythTV setup - please let me know
if I'm on the right track.
Computer: Dell GX 240 (1.7GHz) 512MB Ram 160GB HD OS: Fedora
(just downloaded today)
I'm looking to buy a Hauppauge WinTV-PVR350 to get the remote and
receiver and a Hauppauge WinTV-PVR150 MCE with 2 catv inputs. Will
the CPU handle the encoding of 3 inputs considering that the 350
model is supposed to do brainwork on the card instead of the CPU?
Can I use the 150 to get the remote (or that doesn't include a
receiver i guess) and don't need the 350? I need to keep costs down
as low as possible or my wife won't let me do this ;) I see
newegg.com has decent prices.
What do I need to connect to the TV? I think the PVR 350 or even the
150 have TV out on them? Or do I need to buy a video card with TV out?
I'd like to build a basic box and then eventually build separate
client and server systems.
Thanks!
Todd
