[mythtv-users] PVR350 TV OUT stability - scrap PVR playback?

As I just mentioned to another person (MaLaM) I've been using my PVR350 with
Mythvideo with no problems (I set the playback problem to mythtv rather than
mplayer) - I've been using it with MPEG1 files (and they work!) but I'm sure
a ripped DVD to MPEG2 should work  file (better with the higher resolution)
- but don’t take my word for that as I haven't tried MPEG2 files yet.

I've been using the 350's TV out for about a year now (maybe a bit longer?),
and am currently using Myth 0.16 on FC3.  It's been pretty stable, with no
playback hangs in a long time (at least 6 months).  Only problem that I just
started seeing recently is that my backend crashes when I try to view the
scheduled recordings, but that has nothing to do with the 350 - it happens
via mythweb, or when I run a frontend on my linux desktop as well.

So as far as the 350 TV out goes, I'm very happy.  I do not use it for
MythVideo at all (since the machine is a 450 and doesn't have the CPU for
it) - I only use it for recorded TV (who watches live TV anymore
anyway?!?)

HTH!
