athlon 1133, 512MB RAM, geforce 2 card, running at present into a 17 inch dell trnintron tube monitor. the capture card is the cheapie from DSE, it has no tuner, just captures the composite video output from my sky box.
I see mythtv has facility for a custom tuner change command. I guess i need to rig a remote IR sender thru the serial port and change the sky channel through that. I know there are various projects for this about the place. I am considering, when funds allow, getting a mini-itx motherboard and slipping it, a power supply, a big hard drive and a dvd player (recorder???) into an old video recorder which has died. I am inspired by http://www.mini-itx.com/ :-) Anyone know of a 100 watt or more silent (preferably no fan) power supply? A lot of the mini-itx projects use a laptop style power supply, but they seem to be limited to about 55 W, and it is said (on above site) that they will not service a full size cd/dvd drive. slimline drives are wickedly expensive.
