Well, I don't have DTV anymore, but I'll try to give you a little help. <br><br>First, if I recall correctly, the yellow is the video and the red/white cables are for audio, red being the right channel and white being the left. What I would do first is buy a mini-stereo 1/4" (I believe) mini jack to rca converter. They are probably about 4 bucks at radio shack or probably 10 bucks at best buy. You would then plug this into the line-in jack on the pvr 150 and plug the yellow into the composite in on the pvr 150.
<br><br>Now, as far as the TV-OUT goes. It really depends on the kind of TV you have and the kind of video card that you already are using. If your video card has DVI and your TV does as well, then you can probably use that. What I am using is S-VIDEO. Yes, I don't get Hi-Def, but at the same time, I didn't want to spend an arm and a leg on a video card. The video card I use is a Nvidia GeForce that has a svideo jack already on it. I believe I picked this up at best buy for 30 bucks a few months ago.
<br><br>There are also some nvidia cards that you can purchase a converter doo-higgy for that takes the vga signal and converts it to component. I didn't go down that road because I didn't feel like having another headache.
<br><br>Last question, about the programming guide. I really don't know how this would work with directv and myth. What I am guessing, and this is only a guess....is that you would configure mythtv to use DirecTV instead of a cable provider. Then, you would use your pvr 150 tv card to blast signals to your directv box so it would change channels and what-not. In other words, you wouldn't be using the DTV guide, you would be using the myth one. But again, maybe somebody else has a better solution.
<br><br><br>Good Luck!<br>Mike<br><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 9/24/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">Russell Jones</b> <<a href="mailto:rjones@eggycrew.com">rjones@eggycrew.com</a>> wrote:</span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

<div><font color="#000000" face="Arial" size="2">So, say that I have DirecTV but I do
not have the DVR for it. The DirecTV set top box has the composite
video and audio outputs that come out of the set top box and into
my tv. (the yellow, red, and white ones). From what I can see, The WinTV PVR 150
has the yellow composite video input, and a Line-In that is the standard
headphone jack. Would getting a cable converter from the yellow/red jacks to a
regular headphone jack and plugging it into the line-in on the card give me
stereo audio correctly?</font></div>
<div><font color="#000000" face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font color="#000000" face="Arial" size="2">What about the guide. Will MythTV
work correctly with the directv guides?</font></div>
<div><font color="#000000" face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font color="#000000" face="Arial" size="2">Also, what about TV-Out. I do not
believe I saw any connections for actually taking the signal out of the card, or
would that be coming out of my regular video card with the computer if I want it
to go to my TV.</font></div>

<div><font color="#000000" face="Arial" size="2">Thanks! And sorry about the
noobish-type questions, just want to be sure I buy the correct things I need for
it.</font></div></div>
