surprisingly, im getting like zero help from anyone on ubuntuforums, or mythtvtalk, so ill ask these here for sabz or anyone else a little more savvy with myth.
1. so im looking for 1 or 2 PCIe tuner cards. currently i have a PVR-150, and it works great, and i know hauppauge has great support but i really dont know how support is for other brands. i really want something like a PVR-500, but i dont think they make one in PCIe. i currently only have SD cable access, but i wont turn my nose at some digital/HD stuff either (for the future). i have 2 free x1 slots and i would like to populate them with dual tuners if possible.
picture/audio quality is #1 importance.
currently running Mythbuntu 8.04 64-bit.
this was recommended but i dont think theres any support.

2. ok this is the second time this has happened to me, and im looking for a little help. basically if i try to exit mythfrontend by pressing ESC, myth immediately freezes and i have to shut it down with the system monitor. when this happened before i just did a fresh install and it seemed to be fine, i was having some other issues anyway so it wasnt a big deal. well now its happened again and i really do NOT want to wipe it again because i have a lot of custom configuration and it will just be a pain to reinstall everything again. any ideas on where to start?
Mythbuntu 8.04 64-bit
