Question using ViaM onboard mpeg decoder and haupage 250 decoder/encoder
Problem:
I am getting slow choppy playback of recorded shows while recording live tv or converting to divx.

Questions:
1. Can the haupage 250 hardware encode and decode at the same time?
2. Does converting from mpeg2 to divx use the hardware mpeg encoder or decoder on the haupage card?
3. I would like to be able to setup SnapStream playback to always use the hardware mpeg decoder on my ViaM mother board to watch mpegs. This way watching recorded shows should be smooth no matter how taxed the processor is while encoding live tv using the haupage encoder or convirting to divx using the processor.

Does anyone know if this is possible and if so can you assist me in the configuration
