Record to something other than mpeg?

When recording television programs, is there a way to have STV record to something other than mpeg, maybe avi, wmv ... etc?

SageTV is limited by the recording formats supported by the hardware encoders on the tuner cards it uses, ie MPEG-2.

The Plextor ConvertX TV-402U which is supported does DivX, MPEG 4 in hardware, I think.

But I think by most accounts, the recoding quality/size ratio is not much better than MPEG-2 on most other cards.

I'd bet something like the DualTV's MPEG-2 is pretty close in qualty/size to the Plextor's MPEG-4.
