True hardware MPEG 1/2/4 encoding
Traditional software encoding uses the processor to encode the video, and can cause dropped frames if other programs are running at the same time. Using a hardware chip to do the encoding work frees up the processor to run other programs without losing video quality. This also means that the FlyTV MCE CardBus has lower system requirements, and can be used on older notebooks.

Hardware MPEG-4 encoding
Record high quality video to your hard drive without filling it up! Using MPEG-2, recording two hours of video can take up about 4,700MB, i.e. 1 DVD or 7 CDs. But with MPEG-4, you can record that same amount of video with just 700MB, or one CD! No one else but LifeView gives you true hardware MPEG-4 encoding! |
