I've been lurking in the background for sometime myself so here is some info
on my setup and a question.
 
I setup my first myth box two and a half years ago with a PVR350 starting
with SUSE then quickly moving to FC4 then FC5.  Hardware is minimal with a
Radeon 9550 video card (now using the DVI out to the HDMI projector).
Recently I purchased a Panasonic PA900 projector and screen so I have 720p
with a 120" widescreen setup.
 
Overall it has been good but and the setup/configuration has improved a lot
over the time I have been playing.   I never bothered to setup the external
channel changing for the sky decoder so it has had limited use for watching
TV.
 
This week I got a Skystar 2 this week and installed it today.  It was very
easy to install especially compared to the PVR350 however I have a display
issue with live TV.
 
It looks like the picture is stretched vertically with a large amount of the
picture off the bottom of the screen and some significant quality issues.
Any suggestions?
 
Thanks
 
 
Duncan
