Long story short, software encoding on a system of that power will be spotty. MPEG4 "maybe" and that's a big maybe if you drop the bitrates/resolution enough. MPEG2 no hope.
Hauppauge PVR-150 is probably the best option depending on how much you can get it for ... though mine had a problem which the nice guys here helped me out with. Stupid rare tuner >.< -Meow ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Blaž Tomažic Sent: Monday, 24 September 2007 9:52 a.m. To: User discussion about IVTV Subject: Re: [ivtv-users] Club3D ZAP-TV1011R ups, I mistyped it, it's TV1101R. Then no club3d you say :(. Could you just help me and tell me if software encoding would work on my system(Duron 1300,128MB ram, geforce 2 mx400) or should i go with some other hardware encoding card? P.S.: How much work would it be if I tried to learn about v4l and write a driver for this TV1101R card? :) I know how to program but have never programmed something that included system calls or modules programming.

Just a word of caution! It does not mean the card is supported completely if it is mentioned there. Are you sure the card is TV1011R and not TV1101R? The TV1101R has an unsupported tuner and will not work with linux not just ivtv.
