I'd be interested in finding out how this is goes. I've been wanting
to get into HDTV but am reluctant to spend money on hardware that I

Here is the file how mythbackend is started this is a custom init.d
script that I wrote. how would I ensure that the mythcommflag is set
in the path when this starts.

[mythtv-users] Static on only One Channel
I upgraded myth a while ago (svn version from a couple of weeks ago) and since then I've gotten static on only 1 channel. Direct to the tv comes out pretty clean but the myth box has heavy diagonal lines through the picture. Viewing comcast regular cable in Provo, Utah and the staticy channel is 28.

I"m having a wierd problem with the frontend. I'm running a svn HEAD snapshot from a few days ago (last saturday IIRC). Whenever I finish watching a show the frontend moves down the screen, revealing the desktop behind. It's behaving as if the offset is getting reapplied every time the screen refreshes. RUnning through the apperance setup again corrects the problem, or restarting the frontend.

Platform SUSE 9.3 The tv-out is working splendidly, however I cannot watch tv. Myth will record a show just fine (can see it in the recoded progams and mythweb) However when I try to watch the recording All I get is a blank screen. no audio. If I try to watch live tv all I get is a black screen and then it crashes. The USE 350 hardware section is checked. the dd if=/dev/vido0 of=/dev/video16 works kinda... If the frambuffer is loaded then the fb will stay on top, I assume the video is playing underneath because I hear the audio.

Ok great there is a possible legal loophole that Myth would fit into. But as a community project i feel we have a greater responsibility.

[mythtv-users] PVR 350 and WinTv Go?
Does anyone have both the PVR 350 w/ TV out working and a WinTv Go as a seperate tuner. Do shows recorded by the WinTV Go work with the PVR 350 out (high / low cpu usage) I currently have a 350 w/ TV out working an an AMD duron system (*1.3 GHz) and was thinking about adding a dirt cheap card for PIP and when two shows need to be recorded at the same time. A search in the archives says that the WInTv Go card uses only Bttv driver, and that leads me to belive that ouput over the 350 would be wierd.

I think Rsync would be your best option for the Data Portion. One idea would be to just point myhth backend to only one of the Mysql Servers.

[mythtv-users] Motherboard Recomendation
I've skimmed the archives and havnt' found an answer to my liking... so here's the question I'm planning on building a myth Frontend/Backend box with some hardware i have around AMD 1200 Duron (could be Athlon if I need the power) PVR 350 512 DDR Will build either on SUSE 9.3 ( I work for novell ) or Fedora Core What i'm looking for is a motherboard that won't break the bank, but just works. I had one with a VIA chipset that had a bunch of DMA errors :( But have had many good reports with nForce chipsets. Preferably the onboard sound should work Onboard video a plus but not required...

It's full size so the PVR 350 fits in with no problem. I have an micro Atx motherboard and intel P4. My only complaint is that the processor fan is VERY loud. remidiable by purchasing a quieter fan.
