Any idea which USB tv stick does have the MPEG2 hardware encoder for analogue cable tv?

I dont think there is any USB sticks that have hardware encoding for analog.
There are some larger USB devices, like the Hauppauge HVR-1900, which do analog (with hardware encoder) and DVB-T. No DVB-C though.

Hello,
In de Direct.INI file the Hauppauge HVR-1900 is not supported, will it work anyway with GBPVR since it has the hardware encoder? A second question: Can I be sure that with any card eg WinTV-HVR-1300 or the Hauppauge HVR-1900 which have the MPEG2 hardware encoder for analogue will also support teletext to subtitle conversion (SRT) as is available in GB-PVR?

Hello,
I have seen that some Hauppauge USB tv-cards do have SoftPVR⢠MPEG-2 encoder is this just as good as hardware MPEG2 encordere? eg WinTV-HVR-950Q hybrid TV stick. Question: Does the analolgue tuning work with GB-PVR and the SoftPVR⢠MPEG-2 encoder? Regards,

SoftPVR doesnt work with GB-PVR.
A couple of cards have been tested successfully with the very-similar SoftMCE, but I've never tested the HVR-930C. It uses a large amount of CPU though, and the quality isnt as good as hardware encoder cards.

See the discussion in another topic http://forums.gbpvr.com/showpost.php?p=3...stcount=22 on the 930c latest driver issues. It seems to be hardware batch related problem so I'm going to return it for a RMA. I'll keep you informed on the results when the stick is replaced.

Hi all,
finally some positive news about the HVR-930c problems I've had so far. Hauppauge Germany replaced my stick under warranty and the channel detecting issues are solved now. Everything works fine in GBPVR with drivers v5.8.1107.26322 - 17/11/2008.

It sounds like they know they can fix it with an updated driver, but that fix hasnt been done yet. |
