[mythtv-users] OT Any interest in HDMI --> IP TV x264 encoder boxes?

[Another Sillyname]

Having done a bit of research I believe you could connect this to the
HDMI out on your $ky box to allow you to record from there.  However I
haven't tested this personally so don't shoot me if it's wrong...also
if anyone else on the list has personal experience then please feel
free to pitch in.
