+==== Re-Install Drivers ====
+Since every time I rebooted, mythtv claimed there was no active tuner... so, again, did this:   --- //[[david@lattice.net|David Lloyd Rabine]] 2010/09/19 22:31//
+  - Remove the installed firmware:  <code>
+sudo rm /lib/firmware/*.fw
+</code>
+  - Repeat the above procedure
+  - Run the mythtv backend setup
+    - Remove all tuners
+    - Add new tuners (find each DVB device and add it)
+    - Connect the "local tv" stations to each tuner card and set the default channel to 2_1
+  - Reboot

+  - Modified the Audio output to use S/PDIF:
+    - Utilities / Setup -> Setup -> General -> Page 4
+      - Speaker Configuration from **Stereo** to **5.1**
+      - Upmix:  **Best**
+      - Audio Processing Capabilities:  Check both **Dolby Digital** AND **DTS**
+  - Set our VIDEO output to VDPAU:
+    - Utilities / Setup -> TV Settings -> Playback -> Page 3/8
+    - Current Video Playback Profile:VDPAU High Quality
+==== Remote Control Configuration ====
+I added the following lines to my **lirc** configuration:  **~/.lirc/mythtv**

+==== Media Library ====
+=== Audio ===
+  - Add in symbolic links to our libraries
+  - Go to Listen to Music and it will scan for new files
+=== Video ===
+  - Add in symbolic links for all our shares / files
+  - Go to Utilities / Setup -> Setup -> Media Settings -> Video Settings -> General Settings:  /var/lib/mythtv/video as Directories that hold videos
+===== Trouble Shooting =====
+  - The images were "tearing" with some High Definition content, found [[http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/VDPAU]] this page.  Not sure why disabling the composite output on the card fixes this, but it does.  <code>
+sudo nvidia-xconfig --no-composite
