Is there such a thing as a video card which has onboard
hardware mgeg encoding??
I am trying to set up a system which can record video to the
HD and would welcome any suggestions as to how to go
about it.
Thanks
If you only need hardware MPEG encoding, you can save some money for memory and get the Hauppage PVR-250. Any system these days can easily handle MPEG decoding.
Have fun compiling MythTV because I can not get it compiled.
