you can certainly divert your X output to the PVR350 so that would include the MythTV menus - not sure about the console though. PVR350s aren't very good at playing MPEG4 but the drivers are improving and with a sufficiently powerfull machine you should be OK (my 1GHz EPIA can't quite manage it) AFAIK you need some sort of video card to get most PCs to boot. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
