Hello all,

Recent mythtv user here love it so far. My system is as follows

3.2ghz P4
1 gig pc3200 ram
Samsung spinpoint 500gig sata HD
PCIE Nvidia 7600GT vid card dual dvi out
Sound blaster live! 5.1 sound card
Liteon DVD/CD burner
Lot's of 120mm cooling fans
2x Hauppage PVR-150

Does my current system have enough umph to do HD well?

Now I have been looking at Hauppages hybrid 1600 card has analog and ATSC HD tuner does knoppmyth support this card? If no what are people here using with sucess any help provided would be much appreciated

If you look here:

You'll see that the 1600 is not supported in Linux, so it's not a good choice.

I just upgraded my system to do HD and added an HDHomeRun it so far it works great.

You've got plenty of horsepower for HD with that processor.
