I would like to add FM radio to my HTPC. I was trying ~10 different TV tuners cards, but all of them needs SW encoder, which means slow tunning - in my case ~ 5 - 12 sec (generally USB cards are slower, and sometimes sound has gaps after few minutes).
I would lile to buy a TV card just for FM radio with HW encoder (I guess it needs MPEG HW encoder), the TV cards should be USB or PCIe.
By now I can not find any such card with HW endoder, which I can buy in Europe.
- Which HW encoder is exactly needed? (there are no so much informatio in web)
- Would you recommend any TV cards with HW encoder?
- Will be tunning faster with TV card with HW encoder against the SW encoder?
