Raspberry Pi and TV capture ?

[hydra3333]

Anyone got a Raspberry Pi going with PAL TV capture via a USB tuner ? All info welcomed.

I'm unsure if the Pi's USB2 controller has the bandwidth to simultaneously capture PAL DVB-T SD/HD TV and write to the external USB drive. Hope it does - I would like to use a TinyTwin USB DVB-T receiver to record 2 shows at once.

DVB-T is usually limited to 24 - 26 Mbps (in theory max DVB-T bitrate is 31.668Mbps). Recording (selected PID's) can produce bitrate usually bellow 15 Mbps thus overall bitrate is less than 50 Mbps.
