	The integrated MPEG 1/2 encoder will not be supported. If you
can find one the a (much cheaper) Pinnacle/Miro PCTV card will do you
nicely. Unless of course you fancy tackling the problem that there is
no FreeBSD A/V codec abstraction and a corresponding lack of drivers
for codecs. Certainly it would be nice to have support for some of these
hardware codecs.
