[QUOTE="scoop, post: 24272, member: 10498"] Hi, AFAIK, no. The PVR350 sends the audio & video data in MPEG2 format to the program you're viewing TV with. The MPEG2 audio & video is then decoded by the software MPEG2 decoder you've specified or installed. Then, the uncompressed audio and video is send to your external audio device and graphics card respectively. Indeed, some cheap (non-PVR) TV cards require you to route the audio output to the line input of your soundcard. Please understand that wether you have an internal or external soundcard or not doesn't really matter. This construction works with both internal and external audio solutions. BTW, If I'm not mistaken the PVR350 also has a hardware MPEG2 decoder onboard and a video output, but can't be used by most software (at least not with MediaPortal). Kind regards, Michel [/QUOTE]
