I installed the new card and test-mpeg2 -r 0 works
reliably. However, recording in Myth does not work at all. I've
tried both P2P and broadcast and Mythbackend reports "No Input in 15

I did read that someone with an AMD Opteron couldnt compile ivtv in a
64bit environment. Does this just mean that he had to use a 32bit
environment? If so, is this a problem? do you just dowload differnt
packages or do you need to rebuild the kernel in a "32bit mode"?
Thanks.

I have been unable to find much information about recording digital

What kind of hardware do I need to have MythTv control my 2 DirectTv
boxes? Both have serial interfaces so my thoughts are that I plug a IR
receiver into a USB port and have two serial cables running from the
myth box to the directtv boxes? And I control this whole setup with
LIRC and MythTv?
What is the high quality setting suitable for recording sports from a
DirecTv s-video feed into the pvr-350 and s-video output from a fx5200
to a standard 27inch tv? At this setting, how many gigs to store an
hour of TV?
