Subject: [linux-dvb] Supported ATSC cards with HW mpeg encoders
Date: Fri, 7 Mar 2008 17:28:35 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <001501c880b3$5a749430$0a00a8c0@vorg> (raw)
I plan to get a dual ATSC tunner at some point, but as the 2250 does not
seem to even be out yet and the HDHomeRun does not support NTSC, I am
looking at getting a cheaper card that does suport NTSC for now. I am runing
VDR and using the Nexus RGB out to a 23 year old Sony. So any HD must be
down scaled anyway. AS a couple of our Digital locals are HD, this is what I
want a card with NTSC for, to get the SDTV format of those channels. Cards
like the pcHDTV HD-5500 while claiming to suport NTSC, do not have a HW mpeg
encoder to convert the video to a format that can be sent out the Nexus
video out. You would still need to set up software encoder/decoders. Problem
is, the specs for ATSC tuner cards fall far short of providing this info. So
what I want to know is, do any of the following cards have HW mpeg2 encoders
that is suported by linux/vdr:
DVICO FusionHDTV 5 RT Lite

KWorld ATSC 115
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815260005 (they also
have a 120, but I'm not finding much about linix suport for it ether)
Pinnacle PCTV HD
