Thanks for the replies,
I have standing an AMD 1800+ Athlon 512MB in my basement,
think I will buy a tuner to put in there. and connect the tv cable
to that machine. And use a front end on my own room.
What is the best hardware configuratiion for the front end?
800Mhz 256MB enough? because it only needs to stream the video...
The backend doesn't need to be all that powerful. You may
want to switch those two devices if possible. Other than
transcoding, you shouldn't need much more than a 1ghz
for a backend.
What is the network connection in between - wired or wireless?
Either one should work, but an 800mhz p3 should do fine as
a frontend for everything but HD.

No I dont think I am gonna switch those two machines, that 1800+ makes a noise
like a lawn mower... wouldnt be confortable haveing that machine standing in my
room... it stands nice in the basement, so nobody hears the noise :)
The connection is wired 100mbit,
What do you mean with : "800mhz p3 should do fine as a frontend for
everything but HD" hd?
another question, if I buy a tv-tuner card with an radio tuner on board,
does mythtv support that?
