I will give some of these suggestions a try this week - I have 3 pchdtv boards and the goal is to have the noisemaker server machine(s) hidden away. I get broadcast HDTV in 1088, 480p and I think some 720p. There maybe a couple different bitrates for the 1080i (WB/CBS is highest bitrate at 7.5GB/hour, NBC was 5.5 GB/hour). _______________________________________________ mythtv-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-dev
