I'm interested in recommendations on what card to buy, and wanted to get some opinions.
I have an old 1.2 Ghz machine with 256MB RAM in it that I'd like to turn into a pvr. I would also like to be able to play divx/xvid from a network share if possible.
I want to buy a card that has mpeg2 hardware encoding, along with a video out to the T.V. This machine will not have a monitor hooked up to it. I also would like to have a remote to control it.
I've read up on the board about the MediaMVP/pvr 350 won't play divx. Is there a single card solution out there that will allow me to do this with GBPVR?
Thanks!
