[mythtv-users] PVR350 in MythTV Box: WINDOWS XP DUAL-BOOT WORTHWHILE?

[Darren Enns]

While many are putting PVR350 cards into their MythTV boxes for the 
benefits of MPEG encoding/decoding and TV tuner abilities, not many talk 
about using the same configuration to digitize external analog video 
(from VHS, 8mm, etc.) and then creating DVDs from that material.  
Comments would very much be appreciated for 'most-bang-for-the-buck'!

Along those lines, I also have not seen much comment on people having 
Windows installed onto their MythTV boxes (with PVR350) and then being 
able to use the MPEG editor and DVD-creation software that is supplied 
(or available) by Hauppauge with the PVR350.  Is this worth the $150 
(CDN) or so when building a MythTV box?

Quick comments would be appreciated since I will probably be ordering 
hardware in the next day or two.
