Looking for dual svideo input solution
#1
New to XBMC for linux, I am looking for a hardware and scripting solution to integrate my Wii and a Windows PC as optional Svideo input devices.

I am only looking to be able to select and watch either of two svideo's, whichever is active or explicitly selected, depending on whether I am playing Wii or using the windows PC. No encoding of the streams in necessary, only display, but I would like it well integrated into the XBMC interface.

I already have an Nvidia 6200 8x AGP, VGA/composite/DVI for output on SD TV and I only have a single PCI clot available on an IDEQ 200v. I would like to find a PCI solution that has two svideo ins that is well managed by ubuntu.

Any takers?

I would just grab two USB capture cards. There are a ton of cheap analog ones floating around ever since the digital TV conversion.

As far as viewing them I would suggest using a backend like tvheadend and then just adding the streams as souces.
