Hi Everyone, Next fun hardware question! Which mini-PCI form factor TV tuner cards have people had success running MythTV PVRs with?
VIA's upcoming EPIA N board looks like an ideal compromise between going completely embedded-PC for a dedicated mythbackend machine, not to mention the fact that it uses the CN400 which does both MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 hardware decoding. At 12cmx12cm (just under 4.75"x4.75") it would even fit in a 5.25" drive bay slot. See http://www.viaembedded.com/product/epia_N_spec.jsp?motherboardId=221 A few promising boards appear to be: http://www.provideo.com.tw/PV970.htm http://www.aver.com/oem/#notebooks http://www.yuan.com.tw/en/products/vdo_mpc622.html http://www.lifeview.com.tw/html/products/mini_pci/flytv_platinum_mini.htm Worst case, there are mini-pci to pci adapter boards: http://www.interfacemasters.com/products/pci_tools/mini_pci_to_pci/ ...but that kind of defeats the purpose. Follow-up question would be who sells your mini-pci card of choice, either here in Canada or at least in the US? Andrew. -- If you don't know what to do, do something.
