RE: [Avid-L2] realtime MPEG2 encoding

I had looked at that- actually had a demo several years ago. It's a bit
more than I need really- I just want to connect an SDI (or composite)
signal and capture direct to MPEG2/AC3. Both live or with RS422 VTR
control. I have lots of other tools to do the rest. There are a few
low-end consumer RCA-plug type things out there but it seems the
high-end is hard to come by these days.

based around Encore but Encore doesn't actually capture. I was hoping to
do it with Premiere Pro using the Decklink card as the input but all I
can see is capturing to some other file format and then transcoding to
MPEG-2. We do a lot of one-hour programming and I don't want to spend
the time capturing and then encoding. I have a very old Zapex card that
does this (in SD) but it's going to die any time and I'm planning ahead.
I'd also like to be able to do HD on the same machine, though I gather I
can use H.264 files for that (which I can capture with the Decklink).
But what do I do for MPEG2?
