    Can a hardware encoder (Such as the WinTV PVR 250) be used to encode existing AVI files to mpegs, or does it encode during a live capture only?

    OK... So, are there ANY of the hardware cards which can encode an existing AVI file, or am I just better off spending the $200 for a new CPU / MB combo?
