PVR350 Support

[hartmann]

I have been looking through the post and haven't found my answer, so here is the question.

Does SnapStream have full support for the PVR-350?
(encoder and decoder ) and FM Radio

[RobertH]

No

snapstream only supports the hardware encoder of the pvr350, for mpeg captures, using this device (or any other hardware encoder) prevents streaming of livetv or direct recording into wmv format as the device only provides an MPEG encoded video stream.

FM radio support does not exist (probably never will), you should look into using the wintv radio app and the windows scheduler if you want to do recordings at specific times or something like that.

decoder support is on the wish/future feature list but will not likely be implemented any time soon.

In short I should buy the pvr-250.
I just want to record shows and then burn them to DVD, I have 2 Directv Tivos already.

[RobertH]

yeah the 250 would be a better choice for both features and cost, since those extra functions of the 350 arent supported and prolly wont be any time shortly

I strongly recommend that you DO NOT use the drivers on the cd that will come with the card, instead get the latest ones from hauppauge and install them
