I don't think its that off-topic. I am contemplating getting a PVR-150 for my box and am interested in this kind of post. If there are quality problems with the 150 I'd like to know and I watch this list much more than I do the ivtv one. Hey my 250 is working fine, I don't need that list right now, although I have a feeling I will need it when I upgrade my box to FC3. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
