<div>I am starting the process of building a PVR with MythTV.
Anyway trying to find a digital card with MPEG Encoding has been
my sticking point. Anyway I recently found the Hauppaugh HVR
2250 (<a href="http://www.hauppauge.com/site/products/data_hvr2250.html" target="_blank">http://www.hauppauge.com/site/products/data_hvr2250.html</a>)
and am very interested in it. However it isn't listed on the
known hardware list for Myth. </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>So my question is anyone using this card successfully with Myth?

basically this will be the replacement for the PVR 500, since they
are getting a lot of heat from FCC to not sell any cards that can't
decode digital, as I said on a post before, I think this card will
serve 2 purposes, first the intended one and second I could help do
