So I want to unplug just the yellow cable and plug in an S-video cable? Would that make a difference, since I can actually get a TV recording by typing "cat /dev/video0 >/video/recording/temp_capture.mpg" and playing it back with mplayer? What are the advantages of S-video compared to composite? _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
