[mythtv-users] Configuration of V4L based card

Hi,

I have an Intel OEM Mediacenter with a Avermedia A169. The A169 is dual
tuner card with HW mpeg2 encoding.

The card uses the saa7134 driver and so it's a video4linux based card. I
have tested it with tvtime and it works great.

Now is my question: what is the best way to setup this card in mythtv?

I tried it already as a mpeg2-based card, but these use the ivtv driver. And
this doesn't work.

If I configure it as a v4l device, will it still use the mpeg2 encoder? Or
will it switch to software encoding?
Do I have to change the transport filters to get this working?

Thanks,

Wouter

PS: I'm running mythtv 0.19 from atrpms on a fedora C5.
