[mythtv-users] Question to all the Hauppauge PVR350 users

The pvr350 has a tvout and I read something about framebuffer support. Can the tvout of the pvr350 be used to display anything or just mpeg2 video? Or in other words, can you use the tvout to display the frontend, mythvideo, mythgame, mythgallery,mythmusic, etc. i.e can you use it as a standard display device? 

What about the live tv possibilities? I mean, I know the pvr350 can record tv using its hardware, but can it also play it back? Even at the same time? i.e. live tv? What about playing back a already recorded show, while the pvr350 still actively records another show? Can it do that using its hardware, or will the cpu be used for playback?

For anything that I asked, which the pvr350 can NOT do, please state if this is a hardware limitation, or if it is just a case of "current drivers dont support this feature yet".
