Dear all, First of all, thanks for bringing information and providing drivers.
I am a real GNU/Linux fan, but I lost a lot of time transcoding DV into mpeg-2. Now, it is time to invest into a hardware compression card! I am looking for a DV capture card including an mpeg-2 codec supported by the Kernel 2.6. Here are my questions: 1) Stock kernel 2.6 support Are there any mpeg-2 codec included in the stock 2.6.6 kernel? Or do we need to download the zoran drivers and compile them? 2) Pinnacle/Miro DC10+ (no firewire card) From http://mjpeg.sourceforge.net/driver-zoran/cards.php, I understand that the Pinnacle/Miro DC10+ is well supported and that the DC30+ is not fully supported (interupt problem). Should I consider using a DC10+ or a DC30+? On the web page, does "internal" mean that I can use the mpeg tools "internaly" (I will not be using the capture connectors) to transcode DV streams into mpeg-2? 3) Pinnacle Studio DV 9 (firewire) In fact, I would rather choose a card including BOTH a firewire port and an mpeg-2 codec. Apparently, the Studio DV9 IEEE 1394 port is supported natively by the Kernel. Is the Studio DV 9 card mpeg-2 codec supported? Sorry for asking questions which may sound "obvious", but I need some confirmation before buying a proper card. Thanks for your answer.
