#REDIRECT[[Hardware or Software Decoder?]] |
|||
"Budget" stands for "Low Budget DVB Card" and mostly means the absence of a hardware decoder chip. |
|||
Commonly on newer hardware, for example the hardware MPEG2 decoder is missing, as it is too expensive and nowadays not really necessary any more. With a budget card, the decoding is done by software on the computer's CPU, e.g. [[VDR Software Decoder Plugin]] or [[xine]]. |
|||
For example, the relevant minimum system requirements for a Technotrend DVB-T Budget T1500 are: |
|||
* CPU Pentium at 733 MHz (for HDTV 2,4GHz or faster) |
|||
* 128 Mbyte RAM |
|||
* PCI/AGP-videocard with at least 32Mbyte RAM |
