How much is a PVR-150 MCE version worth? Its just got the driver CD thats it

Someone offered it to me for 33 and im wondering..

[gam3r]

Sorry and also will it work with a P3 750MHz , 512mb ram, 9200radeon ?

You must have heard of Google and Ebay?

New they're in the region of 40 to 60 quid, as to what it's worth, only you can answer that.

Again, if you're getting a Sky package then you're going to only be able to record one channel at a time with that, I'd still suggest a couple of Nova-T's but that's just my opinion.

It should work with your hardware though be aware that the recommended minimum spec for gbpvr is 1GHz.

I googled the thing but this one is only with the card itself..the ones i found were with the mce remote and various cables.

You say it should work but min spec is 1Ghz...What would be the worst case scenario and the best case in terms of performance?

thank you

You seem very determined to try, so try and let us know if it works

It'll work. It'll little bit slow though.

[gam3r]

Im am really determined to make it work with what i've got. I will buy it for £33 as it seems a bargain really.
Slow as in on live tv?

Thanks people

You must all hate me so much by now. But would this work:



For the sky that is, would it be better to run the svideo out from the 150 or the 9200?

The is no svideo-out on the PVR150, only an svideo-in.

Also, I should point out that you will only ever be able to tune the one channel the sky box is current set to, so if you want GB-PVR to be able to automatically record different channels, you'll need to add an IR Blaster so GB-PVR can tell your sky box to change channels when needed.

Oh right. So theoretically that set up works, but it wouldn't automatically change channels to record?

Im happy with that, as i would be using the sky remote to change the chanels anyway and i would to it myself.

But it work work wouldn't it? Just don't want to jump ahead too soon.

Again im so sorry for being so technology prone when it comes to PVR/HTPC's

Thank you
