BTW: HDTV on German Channels (SAT.1 and Pro7) will be also in mpeg4 So, if you want to watch HTDV in future, a new DVB-S card supporting DVB2 and mpeg4 decoder is needed.
-> As far as I've used Xine, xine is able to decode mpeg4. Question still: how much CPU do you need for mpeg4 in 1900x1020?

Hello
Pay dvb-t channels are broadcasted in France in H.264 (stupid choice imho), as some transponders on the satellite. Is vdr capable of decoding MPEG-4 AVC streams ? Will it be ?
VDR doesn't do any MPEG decoding itself. You need a *device* that does this (or a plugin that does it in software). However, so far there are no such devices with LinuxDVB driver support :-(
