[mythtv-users] Plextor Convertx CPU Usage

[Steve Peters - Priority Electronics]

Hello, i see that newegg has a deal going on for the Plextor Convertx for
$49.99 after rebate. I was wondering, what is the cpu usage like when
recording? Is it comparable to a pvr150/250/500 card (minimal cpu usage)? Or
is it more like a software encoder card where it uses the cpu to create the
file?

Also, it looks like it can save to divx...how would making a cutlist and
then using nuvexport to resave it to divx work? Could something be used to
not re-encode the divx file, similar to how myth has this function for mpeg2
with transcoding?
 
Any ideas?
-Thanks
