Post subject:  Use of Picture on Picture on Mythtv

First of all, i'm a newbie on this, experimenting with all the Mythtv distros, so far, the LinHes is the best option for me, cause everything seems to work like a charm.

I only have one question that i couldnt find on the forum, i'm using 2 PVR-150 and using the PiP and PbP function a lot, but what it would be great, is to have an output (maybe for headphones) for the non active window.

The scenario here is to watch two shows at the same time (one for me, the other for the wife...) the problem is that my show has no audio, so if we can use a 2nd output, maybe with a wireless headphone would be great!

Is this possible at all?

Hi,

Mythtv does not support this type of function.

However, you could get a second application (say mplayer) to play the second show in a window and set its audio to a second sound card. This should work, but i have never tried it. It would involve some command line work.

That doesnt sound too good for a newbie, so we will try it probably later when i get more used to Linux.

thanks anyways!
