[mythtvnz] Hardware spec question

[Criggie]

DVB is a digital stream and needs no reencoding.  So your D900 should be
fine as a slave backend with the skystar card.  I haven't done this myself
though.  IANALBYA :)

I use a C500 perfectly well as a play-only frontend.  Its a bit slow
loading screens, but playback is fine.

I also use a P3 700 on 11g wireless which is okay, but is rather slow
about framing backwards.  Its quicker to go back 1/2 second and frame
forwards :)
