I have an older version of MythTV that would not use my PVR-150. Can someone tell me what version of MythTV added support for the ivtv chip set as used in the Hauppauge PVR-150?<br><br>I yanked out my PVR-150 out and moved it to a different system just to record shows and put an saa7134 in my MythTV so now I can watch any channel I want and let my other system record shows. This works but I realy must aggree with you Todd the picture and sound quality of the ivtv is much better then the saa7134. That and the PVR-150 has a much nicer remote make me want to buy another and some how get MythTV to use it.
<br><br>I need to know what version of MythTV started supporting ivtv chip sets because I want to dump the unstable Ubuntu and switch back to the reliable KnoppMyth. KnoppMyth is a few versions behind the newest MythTV release.

<br><br>Got my new PVR-150's today from new egg to replace my Norwood Micro<br>S800 (Conexant-based $30 compusa special). Holy crap what a<br>difference in picture quality, and I was stunned at how simple the<br>upgrade was.
<br><br>Literally: yank old card out, put 2 PVR-150's in, reboot, get into<br>mythbackend, delete my lousy old tuner card, add the new cards,<br>selecting PVR-xx0 right off the card type menu, then I associated the<br>
listings source with em, and voila. Shockingly easy. And all my<br>scheduled stuff just lined up to use the additional card as needed.<br><br>Friggin brilliant.<br><br><br>And dare I say, with these in, the menus feel a lot more responsive.
<br>Even though I have a one month old CPU (AMD A64 3500+), don't let<br>anyone talk you out of hardware based decoders by god. They do seem<br>to make the machine feel a lot zippier even for browsing the media<br>
menus.<br><br><br>Thanks to those who steered me toward the PVR-150's!<br><br><br><br>Todd<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>mythtv-users mailing list<br><a href="mailto:mythtv-users@mythtv.org">
