[mythtv-users] returning PVR-500

[Gavin Haslett]

For reference, once you get your device back you might actually want to boot up once in Windows to test. Hauppauge is friendly to deal with, but they don't directly support Linux. As such, if there's a problem you can say you "installed the software that came with it and it didn't work". I have a Windows partition on my Mythbox (less than a gig) with the basics needed for a system in case I need to troubleshoot a potential hardware problem, knowing I would have to resort to Windows if they asked me if I'd used their software. 
 
So far I've used it once... when I first got my PVR-250 to test that it worked. Not even 100% sure it boots after so much time ;)

	Yes, I just contacted Hauppauge for an RMA.  Great company.  Easy to deal with.
	
	I always assume that when there's a problem, it's my fault.  I've been developing for a while and learned to quit blame shifting long ago.  Oh, and I've been married for 4 years, so I've learned everything is definitely my fault.
	
	I just wanted to be certain that I hadn't made a software goof.  It's too easy to say "this thing was broken when I bought it" at the first sign of trouble.
