Well, this card can only output MPEG2 indeed.... since it only has a
MPEG2 encoding chip. However, nothing prevents you fram taking this
stream and transcoding it to MPEG4, using a software, VLC for instance.
However, in this case, using a pvr 350 has little meaning, since cheaper
cards, without any encoder, will do the same job...
