Hauppauge 1600 Yay? or Nay? (1 Viewer)

Hi

I wanna buy this card to use with MP.
Is it easily compatible?

I dont really care about clear QAM or ATSC.
I almost don't even care if analog tuner works. Almost.

All I really need is for the S-video/composite and audio inputs to work so that MP can use the IR Blaster to tune the STB to the correct channel and record.

Does anyone know if this card will do the trick?


Thanks for any help!

# Record TV shows to your PC's hard disk using the built-in high quality hardware MPEG-2 encoder. While recording, the hardware encoder does all the work so your PC continues to run at full speed! 1-2 Gigabytes of disk is used per hour of recorded video.

In general the tvserver supports

1. any DVB/ATSC card which has BDA drivers
2. any analog card with h/w encoding onboard
3. some analog cards which use s/w encoding
4. the SkyStar-2/Airstar-2/!?CableStar-2 cards when using WDM drivers

IOW, this should work out-of-the-box
