I thought I already mentioned that I have pvr usb2, which puts out 6Mbits/sec video. And I said I want to record shows, typically one hour show of my favorite program and dump it onto a dvd (I probably didn't mention the dvd part earlier). My favorite shows are probably two or three hours per week when I can't watch them. I also mentioned that I wanna leave the TV running in a window when I am using my computer. I know this hardly sounds like the heavy weight use of mythtv that others with 6 tuner cards are putting it to, but some people have to live with the budget that they have.<br><br>I still don't
understand why mythtv is not the application I should be using? mplayer /dev/video0 plays video with horrible sound, and I can't change channels, can't preview what I want to watch.<br><br><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;">----- Original Message ----<br>From: Chris Ribe <chrisribe@gmail.com><br>To: Discussion about mythtv <mythtv-users@mythtv.org><br>Sent: Wednesday, November 29, 2006 11:14:29 AM<br>Subject: Re: [mythtv-users] An option for watching tv<br><br><div>><br>> So, your capture card is not suported by these other programs?
