Ok here goes my rant.
http://www.hauppauge.com/html/wintvpvr350_datasheet.htm
I would suggest users just buy the 250 as the X tvout does not seem to work for me.
If I go to myth setup/utilities>playback use pvr-350 out.
I can in fact use the watch tv or playback a video and it does work with poor color but I cannot ween myself from using a monitor. I want/need pvr-350 tvout to display the X desktop. If I did not in fact have the monitor plugged in I would not be able to use the mythfrontend menu.
lspci reports:
01:09.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC15 MPEG-2 Enc
oder (rev 01)
cat /var/log/messages |grep "iTVC15 TV out"
Reports:
Dec 13 20:38:34 mythbox kernel: ivtv-osd: fb0: iTVC15 TV out frame buffer device
SO the way I see it "I" can't get this to work.
SO here is what I'm thinking.
One of the following:
Buy another graphics card and torture myself to possibly getting it to work to display X desktop with tvout.
Getting an xbox and try to use it as a frontend.
Continue to try to get X desktop to display on the pvr-350 tvout.
Or could I possibly get a product like this display from vga to component video and leave well enough alone?

(I'm thinking this looks like the easiest way to go if it would in fact work)
Does anyone have the pvr-350 displaying X desktop? If so how? Please advise.
