Earlier this year, Ben Collins <a href="https://github.com/bluecherrydvr/solo6x10/commit/7fac80bba138d2e0d01f76c6a7eb7174409ec5a7">added H.264 support[4]</a> into the solo6x10 Video4Linux2 GPL driver. The H.264 PCIe cards are finally <a href="http://www.bluecherrydvr.com/2011/05/multi-input-h-264-linux-supported-encoder-cards/">released and shipping to customers[5]</a>. The new cards support faster frame rates and sport a PCIe interface. The driver is <a href="https://github.com/bluecherrydvr/solo6x10">available for forkin' on Github[6]</a>.<i>"</i></div>
