It should be noted that I never got the remote working with this card, but then I didn't try really hard either. I used a sound card for audio, although according to lspci its standard bt878 audio, so you should be able to get it using the antennae connection.. I think.. (I haven't tried yet.) I used a separate ati rf remote.

I noticed a hauppage WinTV-GO card on pricewatch.com from surpluscomputers.com for $19 with free shipping. Note that I think this card is only coaxial (antenae/cable) and composite. Further note the 57% positive feedback rating on pricewatch.com. This is certainly not a recommendation to do business with them, since unlike newegg I am not familiar with them. Its just an FYI. I might order one.

Does anyone know if the lower cost newer hauppage pvr 150? cards are ready for use with myth?

lspci info for the kword card, if it helps someone..

I just purchased this card from newegg and have been following the
guide on http://www.wilsonet.com/mythtv/ to get it working FC3.

The video and changing cannels now seem to work (back and front end on
the same shuttle pc that I am using).

However, audio and remote controller not so lucky. I was able to use
the script at: http://www.mind.lu/%7Eyg/ftvco/

Is there any such handy scripts to help me get the audio and remote
working? Has anyone got the magic script?

thanks for any advice - ian

I picked up an x-pert tv-pvr by v-stream on newegg

TV TUNER KWRLD CAPTR VS-TV878RF (Qty=1,Price=$36.50)

It seems to allow mpeg4 encoding and playing back on athlon 2500 systems
although I think if you turn the settings way up, you get a little slow
down. I probably need to switch away from reiserfs as per the
recomendations eventually. (kernel 2.6.10)
