I have an aged PII-450 based system that's just sitting in the basement. I'd like to use it as a frontend for mythtv. Only catch is the board is so old that there is no AGP slot on the thing! Can someone recommend a PCI card that has video output that myth will use and that will be very high quality (ie no lines like some of the older board w/ video out)? If you can, please let me know the maker and model with any comments you have.

Thanks all!

I'd get not less than nVidia TnT2.

well if you have a pvr250/350 in the backend I would try to get a cheap pci gforce 4mx board, because it supports the xvmc for motion compensation to help out the weaker machine.
