It will be an add-in PCI card that will be bundled with their All In Wonder cards initially and eventually be sold as a stand alone product. High Def on a nice 23" Flat Panel... time to drool."
From a 21.6 kbps connection :-\
It does have those things
"As much as I hate to rain on your Linux zealot parade, you do realize that TVTime uses the *DLLS* from dScaler, a Windows program, to provide the deinterlacing, right? Just because it's for Windows doesn't mean it's awful."
Hey, numnuts. Guess what, it's not linux zealotry.
Dscalar is a GPL'd progam. MAKING IT FREE SOFTWARE.
THANK GOD FOR FREE SOFTWARE.
If you really want to you can download the theatrical release of Star Wars on DVDR. It's riped from a lazer disc and quality isn't to bad. Of course since the original was never encoded to 5.1 or anything like that if you really want then theatrical releases you have to make do with eh sound and 1970's video. /-1 off topic
Time to drool alright, like an idiot. You just keep on watching the stupidator, I got rid of mine to do somethig worthwhile.
Pretty soon all this hardware will be worthless, since nothing will be recordable except your home movies.
No, you won't be able to make copies of your home movies for fear that you just pointed your camera at something that was copyrighted. You'll have to submit the video to a huge signal analysis farm that'll will check it against its database of registered copyrighted materials, and get back an approved copyable copy a few months after you shoot it.
