Ive been reading the list for a few weeks now. I have purchased a pvr-500 and after moving to the last drivers had little trouble getting it to work.
I just wanted to say thatnks and great work. I also had a few questions. 1) I currently have a windows computer setup to be my PVR/movies/ets. But I am using it like a regular computer. Ie no TV out. I have a desktop and watch TV with an ATI all-in-wonder card. I would like to duplicate this in linux, but I havent seen a good TV viewer program for the desktop. I have mythtv setup on my pvr-500/linux system, but it is aimed more for the TV out user. I want to be able to do other things while watching TV. Is there anything out there that I can use to do this with on the pvr-500? Mplayer and ivtvctl is real close to what I want... 2) I would like to be able to switch channels faster. Right now running 0.3.6s it takes ~4 sec to change the channel. I am a channel flipper. I need fast channel changes. I should have probably done more research on this before buying the pvr-500, but Im here now. :) 3) Lastly I was wondering if it is possible to shrink the size of the image to a smaller window. I think this is what is being discussed (and developed) in the threads about YUV, but Im not exactly sure thats what YUV is. thanks, Aaron Richardson ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
