[streaming] Re: Straming with VLC on OSX with MPEG2 encoding board

[Dave Schroeder]

Hello,

You may be interested in seeing:

http://miglia.com/products/video/evolutiontv/

It offers MPEG-2, MPEG-4, and DivX hardware compression via USB 2.0. It 
accepts video input via composite or S-Video, as well as PAL/NTSC 
television. And, it's only US$279 (€209).

It probably won't work with VLC as a server, but it should be possible 
to packetize the data, similar to what CyTV 
<http://www.lucid-cake.net/cytv/index_en.html> does, and then make a 
stream playable via VLC on the client end.

Regards,
