Hi,

I tried to plug a video game console into the wintv pvr usb 2 to play some 
games with my laptop screen while my girlfriend is watching the tv. 
Unfortunately, there is a latency of about 2-3 sec. between input and image, 
so the games are unplayable.

Is this a limitation in the hardware or a software problem? I didn't tried the 
device on windows yet and I'm using the module provided with the 2.6.19 
kernel. I tried with xawtv and mplayer. The image is 720x480 and my laptop is 
a pentium M 1.4 ghz with 512 mb of ram.

Thanks
