Re: I found an HDMI Video Capture Card for the PC....



Add a hardware MPEG2 encoder and it'll work, that's the requirement for Media Center.

I know, I stated that in my previous message. I just figured why should we
keep trying to find TV Tuner cards with MCE, when technically the receiver is
the Sat or Cable box. Since that is the tuner, and it captures HDMI, it
would be great if these cards plus an Infrared out could handle the record
through MCE. I know it doesn't work, but these companies could come up with
one if demand warranted.

That's a capture card not a PVR card, it won't work in Media Center.
