[mythtv-users] PVR-350 and tv out simply questions

[Juan C. Gallardo]

I was doing the question more thinking about a dedicated machine
connected to the tv. So is not good to have the pvr-350 JUST to display
tv, I want everything going out through that card.
Is that case recommended?

Since you would have a PVR 350, MythTV would route the video playback to the TV-out on the PVR 350, which is excellent quality. If you wander off this path, setting up your X server on the PVR 350 or attempt to playback other video files not recorded by the PVR 350 the playback will not be as good, but should be comparable to most other setups.
