[mythtv-users] selecting the video output device

[mike]

Heya, fellers,

I have a PVR 350.  I believe I can recall, when setting myth up the first 
time around, a setting that asked for the video output.  I set this to 
/dev/video16, which was the tv output.  It certainly works this way, 
currently -- I can watch television on my television.

Instead of trying to become master of the universe with a completely 
working myth setup, I came across a workaround solution that I can live 
with -- someone offered me a computer monitor of equal size as my 
television.  Instead of attempting to get mplayer working over the tv 
output, I am going to swap the television for a monitor.

My dilemma is that I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to set 
myth in such a manner that it just plays television on the monitor again, 
and sends the audio output to /dev/dsp instead of sending the audio to the 
msp3400 driver, however that works.  The simple question is "how do i tell 
myth there's no tv anymore?"

Cheers,

--mike
