Hey all,

I'm considering adding a PCHDTV card to my MythTV setup, and have a few questions about it before I order the card.

1) How does recording schedulding work for HDTV? My PVR-250's are hooked up to the local cable feed; the PCHDTV card will be set up for OTA. If a show is available via both HDTV and cable, how do I tell it I prefer the HDTV version?

2) Is it possible to set up separate transcoding profiles for the HDTV card than the standard cards? I'd like to be able to transcode the HDTV, but still preserve the AC3 audio and such. I was really impressed with a XVid show I grabbed via BitTorrent - it was ~300mb for a 20min show with AC3 audio, and looked great on my 50" TV! Don't see any reason to keep files that are 1gb/10min around. :)

3) Are there any other got'chas I need to worry about?

Thanks for any comments!
