[mythtv-users] Requirements

[Jonas Lihnell]

I assume my last mail was too broad and covered an issue too big so 
I'll split it down to a few more specific questions. (old mail: 
http://mythtv.org/pipermail/mythtv-users/2006-March/129099.html)

When the backend sends the tv signal to the frontend, do the backend or 
the frontend decode it? (I assume frontend)

When myth takes an incoming signal, does it reencode it before it write 
the buffer to disk, or do it first write the raw stream to disk, then 
reencode it to my livetv profile? (I hope it reencodes it before 
writing to disk)


On another note I'm interested in performance measure myth, so if 
anyone knows a good application for counting cpu-cycles, memory 
requirements, disk usage etc for another application or application 
thread, that would be nice :)
