PVR150/PVR250 in same PC

My understanding is that the PVR150 will produce a zero byte file when there
is a PVR250 installed in the same PC. So, should I get rid of the PVR150 and
replace it with a PVR250? This would put 2 - PVR250's in the same box. Or
will I still have a zero byte file size from one of the PVR's? I'm planning
on putting a HD card in the same box also. Would that be an issue?

Where did you get that strange 'understanding'? Mixing PVR-150 and
PVR-250 or any other card works perfectly fine.

There shouldn't be any issues here at all.

I have seen the zero byte file, but that was with very old ivtv drivers.

Not sure where you are getting that from, I had a 250 and 150 in a
master and the same setup in a slave backend for years and never had any
problems whatsoever.

I have had a PVR-350, PVR-250, PVR-150 and PVR-500 in the same backend for
several years as well with no problems. I am also using this machine as a
frontend, but not with the PVR-350's frame buffer. I am currently upgrading
it to an NVidia 8400GS PCI video card. We'll see how well that works out.
