Background information
Based on our SAA7164 PC TV IC, the PCV520/20’s dual-stream architecture supports tuning, demodulation, multi-standard analog TV video/stereo decoding, FM radio stereo decoding, transport stream capture, digital video capture and multi-standard digital encoding of two independent A/V channels simultaneously – all on a low profile PCIe card. The PCV520/20’s exceptionally high integration results in the lowest bill of materials available.
Other features include vertical blanking interval (VBI) extraction and remote control support for TV and recording functions. Multi-layer content protection includes certified Macrovision detection circuitry, CGMS-A extraction and support for the Microsoft Protected Broadcast Driver Architecture (PBDA).
As well as being supported on the latest Windows operating systems, the PCV520/20 can be used with popular third-party TV/DVR applications. Reference board set-up and control is handled through the Windows WDM driver AVStream Class with BDA Extensions.
