I also tried and gave up on a Radeon
7000 card (with FC1). I then got a nVidia GeForce4 MX440 which works
without problems. I have helped somebody with a MythTV with a nVidia
FX5200 which worked with the same setup as the MX440. Just a matter of
using the "nvidia" driver, setting a number of Options which are
described in nVidias documentation on the web, loading some modules and
turning off all kinds of screen savers.
Best regards

Re: [mythtv-users] nVidia card
Ok, thanks all!
So bottom line is, it's a great card for mythtv use.
But, would I be better off getting an fx 5500? Is it worth putting the
extra money into a 256MB version rather than a 128MB? Would an MSI card
be a good choice?
How hard is it to get TV out going?
I've given up on my Radeon 7000 card, cannot make tv out work under
Mandrake 10.1 (I've tried all the drivers - radeon, ati.2, ...) its
just beyond me.
Thanks again, this list is great help!
Cheers,
-Morten

Hi Garry,
What make is it? I've seen various cards on ebay, some of which
claim to be
doing mpeg2 decoding...(which I have come to relise isn't very
probable).
Chances are, it's not "MPEG2 Decoding", it's more "MPEG2 Hardware
Assistance" (In other words, XvMC)
Actually, I think some of the Nvidia cards actually do sport full MPEG
decoders... it's just that the full decoder isn't supported under
Linux.
