Overview/Features

The card falls under the categorization as a Bttv devices (bt848, bt878) device. You will need a computer with at least 1.5MHZ CPU to get it working well in MythTV given, being a software based encoding device, the capture encoding will suck a whole lotta CPU cycles at NTSC 720x480.
