[mythtv-users] Guess its time to go buy a TIVO to hear soem Audio.

[Tim Gray]

I have a great suggestion...

throw both of those cards away and get 2 pvr250's or a
pair of the avermedia cards.

this is the ONLY way to go. I have been down your path
too many times to end in frustration... the only
solution is a pair of $87.00 Avermedia M175 cards (if
you REALLY need to record 2 things at once.)

if your time is 100% worthless, you CAN get the cheap
tuner cards+ sound cards to work but it will take you
quite a bit of time and hassle.. and more than likely
you will not be able to reproduce that sucess
consistantly.

I know this is not helping you right now, but it's the
only answer to a stable and quickly built mythtv box.
