Not quite...

> 250 - Hardware encoding, software decoding

Hardware encoding.  No decoding.  Input only.

> 350 - Hardware encoding, hardware decoding.

Yep.

> 150 - ??       encoding, ??       decoding.

Same as 250 - hardware encoding.  No decoding.

> 500 - 2 Tuner cards in 1. ?? encoding, ?? decoding?

Recognized as 2 150's.

> Just wanted to be sure since I'm planning on getting one.

If it is for a combined box where you don't want to play games - 
only do video and (apparently) DVD playback - go with a 350.

Anything else, get a 150, 250 or 500 and a good 
video card.

I don't think I will want a 150 or a 500 or a 350 (unless this one has
harware encoding and decoding)
