Yep, you can try lower and it will probably look just fine. I just like DVD quality since nero usually dosn't recode the video when I want to archive something to DVD. I've done VCD quality and it was acceptable on TV (a crap TV mind you)
Sage has a plugin that allows it to control your cable box via the serial port on the back. http://sourceforge.net/projects/multidcttuner/ You can also get an IRblaster or a USBUIRT and do the same thing. I imagine myth is similar. http://sage-community.org/index.cgi/wiki/SageRemotesLinks
I thought about trying Myth but I had issues with the system I was using, and Sage did all I wanted to do. I would try myth again but I have zero experience with command line linux so thats out. If you dont want to pay the cash check out GB-PVR and mediaportal as they are pretty decent nowadays as well.
Okay, I ordered the blaster and a pvr-150.
it'll prolly be a nice setup with your projector and xbox.
Yeah, Im hopin so. Geez this PC Alchemy place is F-A-S-T. They had my shit boxed and UPS'd in under an hour.
thats s-video in actually. If you wanted out you need the 350. The good news is that if your projector takes vga you can just use that instead.
or you could get a VGA to component cable.
Good luck finding one in any store locally.

That Evo-Soft product looks promising but $45 for something that only supports one tuner at present is a waste of money. They keep saying they'll support more, but haven't been too informative lately. I wouldn't buy it until they actually support 2 or more tuners.
