I think that the DVR would run it but 1. I have no monitor on it and 2. I don't want to tax it while it's doing other things. - spamlet Jan 25, 12:51 11
- It shouldn't be any problem. 1) Your TV is a monitor :) 2) The hardware encoder that the HD recorder uses takes very little system resources - oblique [220] Jan 25, 12:52 10
  - It's an old TV with no HDMI. Is there something I can do with a VGA output to get it on a TV? - spamlet Jan 25, 12:55 9
    - if you get a cheap video card, it may have s-video out. -- nm - tRuMaN Jan 25, 12:57
    - does it have DVI? -- nm - Reagen Jan 25, 12:55 7
      - I doubt it. It's a 19" tube tv. -- nm - spamlet Jan 25, 12:55 6
