I thought only the 350 had TV out. And the 150/500 has hardware encoding, but not decoding. If I use a 500 or 150, then I'll still need to find a way to connect the TV...Is there an inexpensive way to do that? -t- On Sep 6, 2005, at 10:53 AM, Ali Asad Lotia wrote: The PVR 150 is

The PVR 150 is apparently a pretty decent card. I have a PVR-500 (dual tuners, but similar to 150) and i've been quite happy. It doesn't have a decoder on board, but i do that in software on my machine. On 9/6/05, Anil Gupte <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I have been using the Hauppauge PVR 350

[mythtv-users] Encoder/Decoder cards

2005-09-06 Thread Anil Gupte
I have been using the Hauppauge PVR 350 with good success, but for my next system I am looking to build cheaper.  Is there any other card with an Encoder/Decoder built-in that is cheaper?  If not, how stable/reliable is a card where the processing is being done by the CPU?   Thanx, Anil Gupte
