Two Hardware Questions

[invisible_ink]

Hi all,

I'm trying to build a SAGE machine for my parents on the cheap. Two questions:

1. Has anyone tried the "eVGA Personal Cinema e-GeForce FX5200" as a single card solution?
(http://www.evga.com/products/moreinf...128-A8-N301-AX)

2. What do people use for sending recorded programs to TVs in other rooms (where there isn't a computer, and S-Video won't work because you would also have to run audio cable)?

Thanks as always,
ink.

Hauppauge MediaMVP, using this plugin is one good option.

1) Isn't a supported encoder, you'll have to get something like the Hauppauge PVR 150.
