[mythtv-users] Urgent Questions

[Nick Breau]

Hi,

I was wondering if someone can provide me with some information about a
frontend backend architecture for implementing MythTV.  I have been reading
up and looking into a MythTV solution and think I may finally take the
plunge since last night I installed an IE6 security patch on my dekstop and
my PC is now non-functional - time to go back to redhat.

My question is wether I can use the following two PC's for a
frontend-backend solution and what I may be missing in order to complete the
setup.  I know I will need to add a tuner card (PVR250?) to the backend box,
but will i need anything else ?

Backend - RH9, Athlon 2600mhz, 512RAM, MSI video card
Frontend (good enough?) -  P2-400, 256RAM, 10gig hdd, old ATI-All-in-wonder
video card
(If this frontend isn't powerfull enough, what would be minimum requirements
? Could I implement a solution without a harddrive for the frontend ?)


thanks for the response... If I can confirm that these PC's should come
close to doing the trick I'll definetly install Redhat tonight, otherwise
may have to stick with windows....


Nick.
