For the particular card I was talking about (assuming it is supported,
still not sure) the only advantage I need is cost. A PVR-150
costs what? $60? This card, after rebate right now would be $40,
and would be both a geforce 6200, and a tv-encoder, so I wouldn't need
to worry about a separate video card. Obviously if I wanted to
add more capture cards later, I'd be looking at PVR150s or similar
cards.<br>

<div style="direction: ltr;">A PVR-150 is probably your best bet, for it's combination of MythTV support, quality, and price.<br><br><div>I would not imagine that there is any benefit to getting a card without a tumer as opposed to one with a tuner.

The only obvious advantage would be cost, but that comes out in the
wash when you consider the higher volumes that cards with tuners sell
at.</div><div style="direction: ltr;"><span class="e" id="q_109ff42180bbe90b_1"><br>

<div style="direction: ltr;">I'm in the same situation. I asked the other day about an eVGA <span>e-GeForce
6200, which has a hardware encoder. But I didn't get a response
about whether that encoder was supported by Myth or not. If so it
would be a nice solution for me because it combines the video/encoder
in the one card. Also, if they DO work, there's a rebate (around
$70 I think) at Circuit City for this particular card until I believe
the 18th.<br></span></div><div style="direction: ltr;"><span>

I want to get a card to capture the output from my cable box without<br>needing a tuner, just a hardware mpeg encoder. Which would be a good<br>one to get?<br><br>Thanks,<br>Warren<br>_______________________________________________
