[mythtv-users] component video network capture

I've used USB passthru (of my HDPVR) to my Vmware guest running Myth.  It's been working great for year.


I'm starting to plan my next encoder solution and I'm looking at something network based too; eg:

I realize the HDMI' HDCP is an issue but circumvention (stripping) has become so common that even local stores sell HDCP strippers.  I won't go any further on this topic since it has nothing to do with MythTV, but direct HDMI input is the way to go if possible.


The HDMI input route (over network) is appealing for VM users and others.  So if you pursue this route please update the list!  (Other than HDCP stripping of course).

I believe there are a couple of commercial products (with
commercial prices) to perform those functions.  And if
you have to ask, you likely cannot afford them.  Usually
even rack mounted (if you care) for your entire video
processing room.  I suspect that few (if any) have any
existing MythTV recorder support.

Ok thanks. I have a vmware based backend and was hopping for network based device but since that is not a option I will try usb passthrough.
