hi i was just wondering some info on some hardware and stuff, just trying to sort out which capture card is for me, can you use the pvr-350 mpeg2 decoder output to output the entire screen, or does it just output mpeg2 files? i have a matrox g200 which could do both, but whenever you played a capture file it would spit it out to the tv even if tv output was off.
also can you change the capture settings to different file formats? what is the standard capture format? is it mpeg2 or raw avi?
im mostly likely going to get the pvr-250 or pvr-350, i also live in nz, and theyre really expensive here so just want to make sure i get the right one.
oh also is there you or are you going to implement a widescreen version? or can that be handled by windows or something? im making a pvr that just hooked straight up to a tv which is widescreen
also just want to say i love the project, a lot easier than all the linux ones, mythtv and freevo those were a nightmare to get working, gave up in the end
