Howdy there all!! I am new to the mailing list and proud to be a MythTV
user!! :-D
I am wanting to know what would be the best hardware setup for a NEW
mythtv box. It would be connected to an HDTV via DVI. I would like to
have it with 5.1 or 7.1 digital sound using a standalone sound system,
but unsure what to use! (suggestions please)
I would like to know everyones input on this theoretical setup that I do
not plan to keep theoretical for very long.(2-3 months)
Possible OS: Fedora Core 5
Basic setup:
3.4 +/- P4 OR Duel Xeon (64bit)
SATA HDDs (4-6 drives, all 300G+)
SATA DVDRW DL
2 or 3 TVtunercards (HD if possible)
Remote Control (standalone or from tv tuner)
10/100/1000 Ethernet
5.1 or 7.1 surround sound
nVidia PCIX GPU
Any suggestions on any aspect would be appreciated.
