I spent a long weekend trying to get this all working with a vanilla IVTV
card and in the end gave up. The setup kept re-installing video drivers
every reboot which was a real pain. Plus it didn't know about NZ so didn'=
t
setup MythTV correctly.
It will be very interesting to see how the development progresses.

I have this card running, along with a Hauppage PVR500. Works well.
