[wellylug] Question about PVR-350

[David Harrison]

I have a Haupauge PVR 250 which is the trimmed down 350 without decoding 
(I use a GeForceFX 5700 for that).
It works very nicely as a MythTV solution (I've even got the channel 
information working nicely).

With any setup you should be able to view the stream in a window or 
fullscreen or to a TV without many issues.
