Good to know. I may (eventually) get one of these cards =).
However, I already have five bttv cards.

In the past you've said that it didn't make sense to support
mpeg2 for software encoding because mpeg4 was better. I have
always agreed. However, if the 350 will only display mpeg2
files, might it make sense to software encode files that the
PVR-350 cards can play? Is this possible or are there some
issues that would prevent creating files that would work.
