Hi Oliver,
Thanks !
We have tried applications you mentions, but as H264 is emerging we hoped 
for solutions incorporating this new codec, narrowing the gap between 
propriety codecs such as rv9 and  wm9.
Did any one see the showcase examples of harwarde based coding, such 
Optibase Mpeg-4 encoding card at IBC? Quality of these cards?
Regards,
Gural
