about myth tv, i'm looking to get my 5 year old a new computer (her's is an aging pII 300 (first gen, made in 97 i think) and it has an EXCELLENT tv out. now, i've read that mythtv and freevo need something like a 1.8ghz box to work correctly, is that still true? has anyone gottenthem to run on a lower end box? (she can do capture on her computer now under windows without problems after i enabled dma) otherwise it'll be just a divx/ogg box, but there are worse things to havein the living room =] -d Axel Thimm said: > On Wed, Apr 07, 2004 at 05:03:04PM -0400, Matt Morgan wrote: >> [snip] >> On 04/07/2004 04:04 PM, Michael Gargiullo wrote: >> >If your video card is an ATIRadeon 8xxx or 9xxx series card ATI's >> drivers will work (TV out and all).
