I bought this capture device, not to record scheduled shows, but
rather to convert legacy VHS tape recordings to DVD.
I thought the ConvertX devices captured into MPEG4 format? How are you
planning to transcode recordings into MPEG2 for the DVD?
They capture MPEG2 too,
Ahh, I didn't know that, I'm considering getting one as they're quite
versatile.
The problem is that the record program that comes with the Linux drivers
is a command line utility that you need to tell it how long your
recording will last.
I can watch live captured video with MythTV. I was hoping that it could
be used to start and stop immediate recordings any time, thus without
having to schedule them. Is it possible now? Any ideas?
I'd suggest you start a recording 20 minutes or so longer than you need
and then edit the recording to cut out the unnecessary bits.
