Well, my main answer on all this is, "I don't know".
I would guess that if you initialize the Kfir chip correctly
with the PVR code that there will then be MPEG flying to
some card output - how to access that output, I still don't know
(I wasn't able to get a valid signal, but then I'm using an
NTSC card in PAL-land and a non-standard audio frequency,
which might skew my results).

The folks at pvr.sourceforge.net will hopefully have their
harddrives running again soon and continue work on this.
