Btw, I had a extreme problem getting my 500 to work on one of my slave backends. I belive it's related to the chipset: Apollo Pro133. The machine would reboot from time to time when recording. Moving the card to my master backend (440BX) solved the problem. I know these chipset are ages old by my wife won't let me spend a dime on hardware. ;) -- cyth _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
