If you use a digital tuner card you don't need a fast CPU for recording. You may or may not need a fast CPU for playback depending on what hardware you use for playback. > ffmpeg (but you want to get 0.48 not 0.49pre1 which is in the > current ports tree and suffers from A/V sync errors) Yes, ffmpeg 0.49pre1 has horrible A/V sync problems. The current ffmpeg from cvs seems to have okay A/V sync. http://ffmpeg.sourceforge.net/download.php Getting it to compile on FreeBSD 6.0 AMD64 was a bit of work. Finally I found some patches from Mario S F Ferreira http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2005-December/028013.html and the one for configure fixed my problem. Thank you Mario! I submitted (*) a patch for configure to the ffmpeg-devel list but they didn't like it. I also submitted patches to fix some of the compiler warnings, but they didn't like those either. configure patch http://mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2006-January/006381.html compiler warning patches http://mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2006-January/006394.html (*) The configure patch is mostly Mario's, in hindsight, I should have checked with Mario before submitting it. Sorry, Mario.
