Hi,

As usual (!), I'm (trying to) rebuild(ing) my freevobox.

The trouble with my current freevobox is the temp : Outside tv TV 
closet, everything is OK, but at the normal place (at least in my wife 
feeling), the system receives simply not enough fresh air.
The trouble is greatly related to the PVR-150 card, witch is a good  
heat generator !
So I'm trying to use an USB capture device. I don't need a TV tuner, as 
the box need to record also TV show from the cable decoder, so I can 
(and will probably) forget the tuner part, and better use an IR blaster 
to drive the decoder.
For the IR Blaster, I think to use this one, recommended on mythtv wiki :

But I'm not able to find a non expansive video encoder, supported by 
Linux. I am pretty sure thet the Hauppauge PVR USB2 device would do the 
trick, but this one is not exactly non expensive !

At this time, I'm still searching an SD solution, our living room TV 
-and calbe decoder- is still a CRT model, but if a solution can be 'HD 
ready', it could be interresting. Also, the power is here to to a 
software encoding, but  if I can havez a decent hardware encoding, I 
could also  "slow down" the processor.

What do you use, or know ?

Thanks,
Pascal
