Just wondering if people have recommendations for a video card to be
used for output to an HDTV?  I am using an HDTV which has HDMI and
component video inputs.  I guess I would prefer to use HDMI as the
input, since I am thinking an all digital path is best.

Any thoughts?  ATI?  Nvidia?

I see info that Nvidia have an MPEG2 decoder on GeForce 6800 GPUs,
GeForce 6600 GPUs, GeForce 6200 GPUs, GeForce Go 6800 GPUs, and GeForce
Go 6200 GPUs.

Are these supported by MythTV?  I would think the hardware acceleration
would be quite useful for HDTV.


I don't know that much about the ATI stuff.  So I don't know if they
have hardware acceleration or not.  Though it sounds like people are
using ATI 9200 based cards for HDTV.  Any thoughts on that?


I also have a Hauppauge PVR-350 which has MPEG2 decoder hardware on
board but I don't know if that would be useful for HDTV or not???

Thanks for any input,
John
