It was a while ago, but I think it was a bit tricky to get going. You need to use the zoran driver with video4linux, but I can't remember what I had to do specifically to get it working. Look at http://mjpeg.sourceforge.net/ for good information though.
As for 'glue code', I didn't need any (aside from a channel changer script to control my cable box). MythTV support MJPEG cards directly, so just select that as your capture source.
Hope this helps.

My current setup uses a cheap bt878 tuner card and gets descent picture quality, at best. I have digital cable also, so I use the cable box as an external tuner. I was thinking of getting a PVR-150, or 250, but then I thought, all I really want is hardware compression, so why not use a buz card? I searched the list and found a post from Jonathan Oexner:
"I use an Iomega Buz card for the capture, an X-10 RF remote to control the sucker and a Redrat IR transmitter to control my "external tuner" ;) Works like a charm, although I had to write a bit of glue code to get everything playing together nicely. "
Jonathan (or anyone else who can help): What sort of "glue code" are you talking about? Scripting? Programs? Anything you can share about this type of setup is appreciated.
Thanks,
