Description

I think it would be really awesome, if the Elgato/Geniatech EyeTV 4C (and maybe also EyeTV 4Sat)'s trancoded streams could be used as input-streams for the tvheadend.

The h264 streams provided by EyeTV 4C is better capable of meeting low bandwidth requirements.

Example: Lets say you have the EyeTV 4C on your network - and you have a laptop running tvheadend. Then it seems stupid to transfer the Transport-stream, when the device is capable of creating h264 streams directly.

Often you also just want to forward the h264 streams using the tvheadend - and tvheadend wouldn't in such cases need to trancode the stream to h264 again. It would really be awesome, because the server wouldn't require cpu for doing the transcoding.
