Hello all.
I've been struggling with MythTv for a few weeks now and have decided to try something else. MythTv is good, but the setup just stinks, too many hurdles for me. Here's the hardware I have:
Silverstone HTPC case
Jetway mini-itx (Via eden 1.2ghz, cn700)
Pcmcia daughterboard for wireless card (very cool add on btw)
512mb ddr 667
Hauppauge pvr-350
Samsung 250gb
DVDRW
Sony 32" tv. nothing fancy, standard cable.
Primary purpose for this box is DVD playback and Recording/Watching 1 hour tv shows (around 5 - 10 per month)
The connection I want to use is s-video out from the pvr-350. If that is no good then I can use the s-video from the mb.
Will this setup work? Upgrades are out of the question for the time being, all the funds I had were used to get these parts thinking MythTv wouldn't be such a hassle...
