[mythtv-users] MythTV with HDHR Prime and Direct TV

[John Moore (Insight Global)]

Whatever they are, they don’t match.  One is Y/R/W, the other is R/G/B & R/W.  And I cannot find much in the way of hardware that matches other than the HDMI port.

I am getting to the point where I am ready to give up on my MythTV env and just buy a propriety box.  I so wish Comcast would have just made good on their promise to get the dig done.  After almost 7 weeks and no cable, no internet.  And 3 missed appointments which I stayed home from work.  I am done and force to look at other options to redesign around when I had a working system which I owned the hardware too.

Jim,
So for clarification, as I am learning all this, apparently its Direct TV we have purchased thru.  Finding a DirectTV standard Reciever with Composit R/W/Y is not hard.  It’s the HD-PVR which is becoming difficult.  Most have HDMI, S-Video, and R/G/B (video) along with R/W (audio).  So I take it this is why your suggesting I find a Gen1 box.
Do you mean Composite or Component? They are two different things. For the best quality results, it should be Component that you are looking for.

I do believe based off of the R/G/B video...  He means Component.
