Anyone have Creative's Video Blaster Digital VCR?

Hi All,

I've heard a little about this card (http://www.americas.creative.com/pro...sp?Product=222)

It sounds promising, and a pretty good price. I'm wondering if it performs as well as claimed (Mpeg2 realtime with p2 processor?)

I don't think it states whether it captures in AVI, but I suspect if it does that it would definitely be using your CPU for compression, whereas MPEG2 compression is handled by the built-in compressor chip.

So, anyone seen it?
