I would like to have the best possible video quality (probably this requirement knocks off the full-featured cards, because they perform an on-the-fly MPEG-2 encoding thus possibly losing quality on fast moving scenes). A vendor which cooperates with the community and provides not only binary drivers but source code or specification is preferred.


Hi,

No, full-featured cards are not encoding video to MPEG2, but decoding MPEG2 video to RGB or YUV. Some cards re-encode the video to PAL or S-video, which results in a loss of quality. Some cards have a direct RGB output (Hauppauge DVB-S REV 1.x). I don't known if there are any DVB-T versions of these cards.

Are you going to display the video on a TV or on the computer screen ?
