I'm new to this list
but have thinking about building a MythTV box of a year or so. I've now
started ordering bits (well a antec overture II case) and am planning on using
a Hauppauge WinTV NOVA-t freeview PCI card and Ubuntu/512MB memory.
As you can probably imagine, I have a few questions.
Firstly what
processor should I get. I had a AMD Sempron 3000+ to 3400+ in mind.
What I was hoping on being able to do is allow the TV card to do the recording
and have enough oomth in the CPU to be able to decode/play at the same time as
recording or do I need two TV cards to do this. Being able to play and
record at the same time is very important to me. How do I wire things up
to record/play at the same time. If I had two cards would I have one wired
to record an the other to play and do they have to be the same
cards?
Is
the 'Hauppauge WinTV NOVA-t PCI card' a good choice or are there
other freeview cards I should consider (freeview is the relatively new free to
view TV service here in the UK). I am assuming here that I should go for a
internal PCI card because I am not sure about compatibility with external USB
cards although having a external card is better from the point of you of
interference.
