[mythtv-users] newbie hardware question

[Brian Varney]

Thanks for the responses.  I've decided to go with the PVR-350.  This
card is hard to find.  I ended up ordering it from provantage.com even
though they didn't have it in stock.  I should have the card around the
first week of March.  So look forward to more questions from me around
that time.

I'm planning on running Red Hat 9.0, just because that is the only linux
I'm familiar with.  Also, I'm going to be using a GeForce 4 Ti-4200 for
tv-out (Assuming I have problems with the tv-out of the pvr-350).

Regards,
Brian Varney

I just recently stumbled onto mythTV's website.  I think it's fricken
awesome and I'm going to build one of these systems.

My big question right now is which tv tuner card to get.  I've seen a
lot of references to the PVR-350.  Is this the latest and greatest?  Is
a new and improved card coming out soon?  Should I wait?

The PVR-350 has two coax inputs.  Does that means it is possible to
record 2 shows at once?  Can you record one show while watching another?
Or does this require two cards?

Thanks in advance _______________________________________________
