[mythtv-users] Video Card Usage

Hi All,

I am in the process of putting together a MythTV system with a Hauppage
PVR-350 in order to do the encoding and decoding of the MPEG-2 video.  I am
wondering if, since this card does the encoding and output of the video,
will the video card itself be doing much work?  My GeForce card has an
onboard fan, but I'd like to disconnect that if the card is not going to be
using much horsepower. 

Also, with the PVR-350, will all video from the system be output through a
coax cable on the card instead of/as well as through the video card?

Thank you!

Tim

Tim,

Once you have the PVR-350 configured for TV-Out you can remove the nVidia
card from the system completely as it is no longer needed after that point.
