[mythtv-users] an interesting HD device

[Dan Ritter]

(No, it's not a Black Magic "we don't like those Linux folks"
board.)

Summary: it's a single-board computer with an ARM CPU and a
hefty coprocessor for video, that has a Linux SDK and can
manage realtime 720P MPEG4 encoding. Large quantity price of
about $10, so a little box with USB, power supply and
appropriate analog I/O could be profitable around $100. 

That would make a very nice "connect to HD satellite box"
interface.

Anyone heard from the PCHDtv folks recently? I recall mention
of a possible solution from them for late in the year.
