Looked
at doing the same thing myself, my research at my budget levels have led me
to
look at two cards.
The
ATI all in wonder Radeon (circa £220), the Hauppauge
PVR,
ATI
AIW:
has
composite\SVHS TV out
pause
TV
SVHS
in
Composite IN
TV
Tuner
SW
encoding
Hauppauge PVR:
pause
TV
SVHS
in
Composite IN
TV
Tuner
HW
MPEG2 encoding
Radio Tuner
Remote Control
The Hauppauge looks to suit the best
BUT no
TV out! aaarrrrggghhhhh....
also check out the WDM driver
capability, as
most software requires WDM drivers to function, limited support under
VFW
I currently have a Hauppauge theatre
something or other, plus a ATI AIW 128 although both capture fine with
there
native software neither does a watchable capture using the current PVR
software
I have tried.
My feeling is this is early days for
this
type of software and should be looked at again in 3-6
months...

Have seen a few movies in DiVx format lately
as
well as using some of the PVR software I'm considering building some kind
of
TiVo type server.
Anyone got any experience of
this?
Are there any video cards that do MPEG2
compression in hardware as well as having good quality TV tuner and TV
out.
Thanks
