Just curious if anyone has any experience with using this motherboard
with MythTV? I'm looking into building a media box in the distant
future (most likely around May or June when I am done school and will
have money to spend). I intend to use a Gentoo installation with the
EPIA 800 and a TV-Wonder/WinTV (depending on prices and availability).
My main concern with the EPIA 800 is the on-board sound quality. Since
the board only comes with one expansion slot which will be used by the
TV card, I would be stuck with the onboard sound if I buy this board,
and I don't want to be stuck with really bad sound. I'm not expecting
perfect sound that would please a true audiophile, just sound quality
that doesn't have any really noticeable hiss or pops (basically, I can
listen to it without being driven mad by interference/noise).
Any opinions on this board would be appreciated.
Thanks
