[mythtv-users] MythTV RPM install from ATRPMs / how to get CLE266 hardware MPEG2 work

[Mardin]

Hello Wilson, Hello everybody,

Yes I know it only decodes :-( for DVD playback for example ... but is there a 
TVcard usable for german analog TV (cable) and having a  MPEG encoder/decoder 
which is used for creating/capture LiveTV ...

What do you think about this card
    Fujitsu-Siemens DVB-C Karte mit Analogmodul

Thanks a lot for help
Martin
