the data-capture is performed by three Hauppauge Nova-T PCI cards. Each records a single DVB-T multiplex, which is enough to record all the TV channels broadcast terrestrially in a single location in the UK.
the quality recorded is exactly the same as the quality broadcast
your comment that "VHS quality shouldn't be too hard to achieve" by using a low-quality ADC is, I'm afraid, entirely incorrect.
If you want to contribute to Dirac as a programmer but don't want to spend several months studying maths, there's plenty of work to be done outside the field of optimising the codec - interfacing it to every video-related open-source project under the sun for example. There're already Dirac patches for transcode, ffmpeg and mplayer, but that's just the tip of the iceberg...
Stop fretting about UTMS capacity and go and read about DVB-H.:-)
Re:Sorry, but that is just plain wrong.

Why-o-why did the BBC have to pay millions, for example, to get a sports show (Saturday night footie) when the same footie was already on TV on a commercial station.
Because of a small but significant number of licence-fee payers who are interested in football and would feel hard-done-by if the BBC didn't cover their sport.
Hello? Last time I checked, the UK, France, Russia, Pakistan, India and I think China itself all had nukes. Not to mention the Israelis (probably). There's no question of the US being the "sole keeper" of such weapons, even if it wanted to be.
And I'm telling you that you could get a waveform that looked totally different and yet sounded exactly the same. In that case the "actual waveform" would *not* be "more informative than just listening".
It's not a very useful test - the human ear is absolutely crap at detecting absolute phase information, so lossy encoders often just discard it. This can lead to waveforms that look totally different and yet are completely indistinguishable to the human ear.
Everyone works on the whole picture at once, but simulates different randomly-emitted photons. All you need is a different random seed for each client, which is trivial to manage.
Suppose you want a 2nd live feed... How are you going to transmit the data out of the plane?
Given that they were receiving remote telemetry data all through the flight (until the test plane went over the horizon - I switched off as they were talking about a P3 Orion that should have caught the reat), I suspect that they've solved that problem.
Tony Blair is *not* a socialist - he and the "New Labour" movement he founded are broadly centrist with a few right-wing leanings, notably on the issues of asylum, civil rights and privatisation.

There were three cards in the box.
What about S4C?
That's because it's not a company and they're not selling a product. It's a project, like MythTV.

$a is "perl syntax" :-)
;-)
In BASIC, $ indicates a string variable. Integers are represented "bare".
So,
10 LET A = 2
20 IF A = 2 THEN PRINT "2"
in BBC BASIC, AFAIK, at least...

Your university is on the American side of the Atlantic, isn't it?

Have a look at the Condor Project - I think they're already on it :-)

Attitude counts for a lot.
At last we can finally put to rest the national stereotype of the Germans as humourless.
I think someone should start a business selling CDs full of random numbers.

How is "p2p" any different from PCI bus-mastering? You can already get PCI cards to talk directly to one another.
In the UK right now they're running a massive poster advertising campaign claiming that their burgers are "100% pure beef".
Dude, go and complain to the author. I stand by my point, which was that the original poster should have read the article before asking his question.
