Real-time hardware MPEG 2 encoding
Watch and record video to your hard drive quickly and easily with hardware encoding! Traditional software encoding uses the computer processor to encode video. Hardware encoding takes the load off of the processor and lets you capture video while running other programs, without dropping frames!

Record high quality video to your hard drive without filling it up! Using MPEG-2, recording two hours of video can take up about 4,700MB, i.e. 1 DVD or 7 CDs. But with MPEG-4, you can record that same amount of video with just 700MB, or one CD! No one else but LifeView gives you true hardware MPEG-4 encoding!
