Could you expand a bit on the subject of "a blessing and a curse" with 
respect to hardware mpeg encoding?

Or, point to a relevant discussion of the issue?

I've been holding out, waiting for hardware mpeg card support in MythTV 
(been a while since I've checked, looks like it may have improved since) 
and was not aware of negative issues with it.

Thanks,
