thanks for being so thoughtful as to top-post - it makes it much easier to read the replies when you don't have to scroll down through the stuff you just read a few seconds before...

(yes, this is a troll - as is any post that whines about top/bottom posting without itself doing any trimming)

*grrr for top posting*

The PVR250/350 is MPEG2, not MPEG4 as the poster asked.

I transcode from an MPEG2 PVR250 stream at 4mbit/sec, 720x576 to MPEG4
1000kbit/sec 360x288 on my system, and it seems to do about 20 frames
per second.

This is a P4-2GHz.

Playback of the resulting file uses around 20-30%

So it is my experience that transcoding is not realtime on my PC, but
playback is.  Recording from raw frames to MPEG4 might be easier on the
PC than transcoding.

But a PVR-350 both encodes & decodes in hardware...

Quick question

What are the minimum CPU requirements for live tv MPEG4 encoding.

Or rather, who has the slowest system, running mpeg-4 encoding and
decoding in software.
