Hello,<br><br>I have a BE/FE machine that I've been using happily for several years. It has a Sempron 2600+ processor, and it gets OTA broadcasts with a PVR-150 and outputs them through the S-Video output of a Nvidia MX4400 video card to an 18 year old CRT. It has been working great for a long time, with just the occasional update using Knoppmyth.<br>
<br>Now, however, everything has been screwed up by the upcoming Digital Conversion. I bought a DTV converter (Tivaz brand) and it works fine, but I haven't got a channel change script going for it yet so I have to change the channels by hand, which simply doesn't work very well. I bought an air2pc card thinking it would tune in the digital channels and work as transparently as the pvr-150, but after doing some reading it seems that with the HD content that's being broadcast, I'll end up with huge files that I might not be able to play back smoothly. Is this true for my Sempron 2600? Does it matter that I'm only outputting S-Video? Would a better video card help (I'd rather not use XvMC unless I have to, but I'l also rather not have to replace the motherboard, processor, and ram)?<br>
<br>Someday I'd like to upgrade my TV to something bigger and better, but I'm not ready to do that yet (might get laid off any day now). In the meantime, I just want the easiest way possible to keep using Myth.<br>
<br>Thanks,<br><br>Jon<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Jon Hoyt<br>Eugene, OR<br><br>
