<div>Agreed but the limitation of the homerun device is I cant use it with Satellite set top boxes and also I am trying to capture output of a computer.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I stream video from a sliver right, that is coming from India and then I play full screeen on a windoze machine.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I then want to pipe that to the myth box so myth can capture the video/audio, since myth does NOT know whether it is coming from set-top box or another pc.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>So before I buy another internal Hauppauge device I want to try out Hauppauge USB2 PVR.</div>

From what I have read and found in practice you can save yourself a lot of grief by using a SiliconDust HDHomeRun. The advantage is they work with any operating system and don't require drivers. The SiliconDust web site has complete instructions for use with MythTV.<br>
<br>MythTV instructions<br><a href="http://www.silicondust.com/support/hdhomerun/instructions/mythtv/" target="_blank">http://www.silicondust.com/support/hdhomerun/instructions/mythtv/</a><br><br>The come in several models:<br>
<br>Single Tuner<br><br>Dual Tuner<br><br>Tech - Same as dual tuner but with more features.<br> Recommended for Industrial/Commercial installations<br><br>Prime - not available yet. Triple tuner, over the<br> air/QAM/CableCARD (encrypted cable channels with<br>
card from cable company)<br><br><br>HDHomeRun Single Tuner - $64.99<br><a href="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815345001&cm_re=hdhomerun-_-15-345-001-_-Product" target="_blank">http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815345001&cm_re=hdhomerun-_-15-345-001-_-Product</a><br>
<br>HDHomeRun Dual Tuner - $119.99 (these occasionally go on sale as low as $75 with free shipping) (I have one of these)<br><a href="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815327005&cm_re=hdhomerun-_-15-327-005-_-Product" target="_blank">http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815327005&cm_re=hdhomerun-_-15-327-005-_-Product</a><br>
<br>Looks like SiliconDust has a newer version of the dual tuner model but I haven't seen it for sale yet<br><a href="http://www.silicondust.com/products/models/hdhr3-us/" target="_blank">http://www.silicondust.com/products/models/hdhr3-us/</a><br>
