hi
first post (woo hoo!) after a brief lurk, and a few weeks experimenting
i have got mythbuntu up and running, and although i seem to have the cd
/dvd side of things down, my tv experience is less satisfactory
i have managed to stream foxtel (cable) via the s-video, although in all
honesty i don't really know why the picture finally showed up after many
attempts at getting the input recognised
it'll time shift (great!) but the sound and colour are not happening;
so whilst i appreciate the experience is a little like cinema starting
with silent black & white, i would like to have talkies in glorious colour
the "cable" input is via analogue into an audigy2 for sound, and the
s-video in on a winfast2000xp
output is via a 6600vivo with proprietary drivers
i am not a complete n00b but linux is not my first language :-)
i admit to being better in winxp and i certainly prefer gui given a
choice, and i am not a natural command line sort of guy but can use
terminal under duress :-P
thanks for any assistance, and please have mercy on my ignorance
it has been a pretty painless experience thus far, although i have to
admit i am just fiddling with the settings and learning as i go (just
like i did with win3.0 all those years ago)
cheers
ash
