If you can convert the signals to YUV, it should be possible to use the
PVR-350 as a real-time encoder.

It the kernel log you should see something like:
ivtv0: Registered device video0 for encoder MPEG (4 MB)
ivtv0: Registered device video32 for encoder YUV (2 MB)
ivtv0: Registered device vbi0 for encoder VBI (1 MB)
ivtv0: Registered device video24 for encoder PCM audio (1 MB)
ivtv0: Registered device radio0 for encoder radio
ivtv0: Registered device video16 for decoder MPEG (1 MB)
ivtv0: Registered device vbi8 for decoder VBI (1 MB)
ivtv0: Registered device vbi16 for decoder VOUT
ivtv0: Registered device video48 for decoder YUV (1 MB)


This means that you can push a YUV stream to /dev/video48 and read an
mpeg stream from /dev/video0.

The names are a bit misleading, decoder devices are where write streams
and encoder devices are where you read them.
