Hi,
I have a PVR-350 and haven't had much success in getting the X driver to work,
so I haven't been able to play video files on the television. I think I heard
in a previous post that the MythTV developers aren't intending to support the
PVR-350's tv-out for long, so I guess I am in the market for a new video card
that can handle the s-video output. Ideally, I would like to get:
- A relatively cheap card (I don't play 3d games, but it should be fast
enough to run MythTV on the television while I work in emacs on my
monitor.)
- A PCI Express card (it's my only free slot) with a DVI connection to the
monitor and an S-video connection to the television
- A card that works well with X-windows and makes it relatively easy to set
up the dual headed display between the monitor and the tv.
Do you have any recommendations as to what might be a good card for me?
Thanks!
Jared
