Video capture card or box, such as Inventa MPEGIO or USBMPEG2-Box, that use dedicated hardware chip on-board to compress incoming video and audio into MPEG format in realtime, without invoking any software on host PC to do compression. Since in realtime compression of live video signal data, dedicated compression chip can be made far superior in performance and efficiency to generic CPUs on the host PC and not being adversely influenced by the Host PC’s other activities, this leads to many un-challengeable advantages over using host based software to compress combined video and audio in realtime.
