[mythtv-users] New MPEG2-Encoder board available

[Edward Wildgoose]

It would be nice to have a board which could take input from an internal frame buffer of sorts, rather than only from an external analogue input.  This would allow for easy generation from arbitrary sources.

Likewise a decoder which could decode to memory would be useful (although it seems that the DVB cards must be able to do something similar because you can attach xawtv to the /dev/video device without incuring cpu overhead...  It seems to be quite easy to stream an mpeg to be decoded to a H+ card, or the DVB card, and presumably will be for the PVR350 card - the trick is how to mux in an overlay stream for on screen menus and display (but if anyone is keen I think there is sample code to do exactly this in the H+ plugin for vdr)
