MPEG-4 Capture Cards

Why are there no capture cards made by companies like Happauge that have hardware MPEG-4 encoders rather than MPEG-2 encoders? You can now buy digital camcorders (from Panasonic, Sanyo, etc.) that record video files directly to MPEG-4 that are reasonably priced so price shouldn't be an issue.

If such cards were available then you would have no need for ShowSqueeze. Isn't this the way of the future, after all MPEG-2 is early 90s technology, at best?

Re: MPEG-4 Capture Cards

you and I, and probably many others would like to know why it takes so long for these changes to take place. I know that the plextor divx unit is supported in some applications already, but that's USB.
