Hi,
I am looking into building a MythTV box, I was (hopefully) going to get
a hushpc (Fanless EPIA M based system) and have got a conundrum about
capture board.
I have the following requirements:
- Monitor-less system (TV out only)
- Full use of Myth functions (MythGame etc)
- Digital Audio output (Dolby 5.1)
- High WAF factor :-)
- S-Video/Composite input for capture from digibox
So onto the questions...
- I read somewhere that with the EPIA M motherboards the digital audio
uses the coax socket also used by the TV-out?
If this is the case then I'll need this functionality in the capture device.
- Does the PVR 350 support all of the MythTV modules when it it used as
the TV-out device?
- Are there any (other) drawbacks to using the PVR-350 TV-out?
- Are there any other cards that provide an MPEG2 encoder / decoder and
Composite / S-Video in?
Thanks
Kevin
