Hello,
This is my first post, so please bear with me if it is full of
questions with obvious answers...
I want to build me a new box that will have to server as PVR, and as
media server (host my music collection in other words). I was thinking
of buying this one:

And add a haupauge PVR 500 card to it. Then I'd add linux and mythtv
I've searched the archives of this list, and thus got the impression
this would work.
First question: Am I correct?
What I basically would need is how to get the CN400 northbridge on the
motherboard working, and how to get the PVR 500 working. In mails I
found in the archive of this list a "guide" was mentioned on how to
get the PVR 500 working. I could not find an other reference to this.
Thus:
Second question: What's involved in getting the PVR 500 working. Are
the results good?
Thanks in advance,
Krist
not to discourage you away from via/epia but you might want to read the
endless threads on this subject.. recently one named "gave up on the
Epia" using one for a frontend/backend system really isnt ideal because
of the DMA issues VIA chips suffer under linux..
