xcard

OK, I give up on the pvr 350 card. Looks like if you have a crashing problem with OSD it is going to stay that way. I am returning it today and buying an xcard.

What xcard model are people using that has a video out. Thanks.

"Ther can be only one!"
And so there was, only one. The one called X-Card!!!

Just kidding, as far as I know there is only one model of XCard...

[Dave]

when I looked on line today I say at least 4 ranging from $100 to $500. Could you post the model number of yours. Thanks.

From what I can see at sigmas site, there is the xcard and 3 netstream cards. The Xcard is the one with remote and not as rectangular as the rest.

As a side note, I have an XCard and have not been able to get it to work with gb-pvr yet.

There is no option for widescreen either, if u must have it.

I will probably use gb-pvr with a regular graphic card, monitor cable to my projector and a soundblaster card with digital out to my decoder. But that's just me

I have an Xcard and a hauppauge 250. Recording and displaying is excellent, I can recommend this combination. However I have not been able to get the OSD on the tv-out of the Xcard, but according to Sub this is solved in the new release.

Thanks. I guess I got the cards confused. That see that the one with remote is only $85. That is cheap enough to give it a try. Thanks again.
