The air2pc seems to take some work off the processor while I have read the PCHDTV uses 80-90% on an athalon64 3000.

My experience with capturing using the pcHDTV is that it uses 1.3% of CPU (azap + cat + cx88[0] dvb on an athlon64 3500). Actually watching live or captured streams does take a lot of CPU, though, especially without xvmc. --[[User:Mitchskin|Mitch]] 21:50, 14 May 2005 (CEST)

The ATSC frontend of the DViCO card is under active development. Only the analog capability is currently working.
The ATSC frontend of the DViCO cards has been tested with 8-VSB (OTA) and QAM-256 (Cable) in the US.

As of right now there are 4 confirmed working cards.

  • The PCHDTV card
  • The air2pc card
  • The DViCO FusionHDTV 3 GOLD-Q
  • The DViCO FusionHDTV 3 GOLD-T

The air2pc seems to take some work off the processor while I have read the PCHDTV uses 80-90% on an athalon64 3000.

My experience with capturing using the pcHDTV is that it uses 1.3% of CPU (azap + cat + cx88[0] dvb on an athlon64 3500). Actually watching live or captured streams does take a lot of CPU, though, especially without xvmc. --Mitch 21:50, 14 May 2005 (CEST)
