 Which appear to be commonplace now. I guess what you do with the vid afterwards will have a large impact too. eg transcoding etc. Possibly not a problem with DVB-S2 - as it is already in MPEG4. Thoughts? |

Re: Cardsharing - DVB-s tuner?? Rookie - help please..
I think that multi-core is definitely the way to go. Don't think I'd bother with anything less than an Athlon 64 X2 4600 at the moment. The 5200 seems to be the logical breakpoint in price right now - prices start leaping up beyond that, so I would probably go for that based on VFM.
