I bought mine on ebay. I was a bit afraid that I'd run into trouble to set it up as it reported but for me it was a real plug n' play experience. I used Axel's binary ivtv drivers for FC3 but I compile MythTV from the CVS. This card reports itself as a pair of PVR-150 on a single PCI card: I have a working system with a PVR-350 and want to add at least another tuner. I'm considering the PVR-500 card. How does the interface handle multiple tuners for watching liveTV? How does the system handle the remote(s) (for PIP for example)? ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

Mvh Anders Christensen IT Partner Danmark ApS The PVR500 is supported by the ivtv driver. Hop on over to the ivtv mailing list / wiki and you will find lots of info. http://ivtv.sourceforge.net/ Its not yet fully easy going, so some effort likely to be needed.
