<P><FONT SIZE=2>I am using Myth .12, that's the frustrating part. Do you have the Hardware</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Decoder option in your installation? This might sound weird, but, could you possible send a screen capture of the options in setup for the</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hardware Decoder? I'm not sure why things would be different in my </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>install of version .12. What changes did you make to the files in Myth .12</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>to get it installed on your system? Maybe I missed something when I did it.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Thanks again for all your help and patience.</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>I would suggest getting Myth .12, it solves a number of issues relating</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>to the PVR350.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>It sounds like your still on .11</FONT>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Brett, </FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I was unable to find an option to enable Hardware Encoding through </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Setup->TV Settings->Playback Settings. Did I miss something when I </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>compiled Myth? I commented out line 71, "return false;", before </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>compiling which, according to other posts, should allow for the use </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>of PVR 350 TV-Out. The MythTV CVS indicates that all database </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>changes are automatically updated by the compile/install process, so </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>this should be okay. Any other ideas? </FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Thanks, </FONT>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>I was probably a little vague about what I meant by setup. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Start up Mythfrontend. There should be a Setup icon here. Select </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Setup, and go to the TV Settings. In there, there's a Playback </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>settings. Select playback settings. Click Next to Advance to the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Second page. On this page, there should be an option to enable the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Hardware Decoding. Enable it. Click Next a few times, and then Finish,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>and you should be good to go. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Let me know if you do/don't get this working. </FONT>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Brett, </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Thanks for the response, however, I can't find anything in Setup that </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>allows for enabling Hardware 350 decoding. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>I've tried running mythsetup and it only allows for setting up the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>backend for video capture, tv listings, etc. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>(menu options General, Capture Cards, Video Sources, Input Connections).</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>The Capture Cards section is set up </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>as follows: </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> Card Type -> MPEG-2 Encoder Card (PVR-250, PVR-350) </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> Video Device -> /dev/video0 </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> VBI Device -> /dev/vbi0 </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> Audio Device -> /dev/dsp </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> Audio Sampling Rate Limit -> (None) </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> Default Input -> Tuner0 </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>I even tried setting the Video Device to video16, but that didn't work </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>either. Same problem with frame dropping. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>I've gone through the Setup menu of mythfrontend, but found nothing in </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>the playback settings (or any other </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>settings) that speaks to hardware decoding. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Since I'm fairly new to Myth, am I missing something? Do you have a </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>screen shot of the settings screen that I could </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>see or could you be more specific? </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Thanks again, </FONT>
