for others clicking and to save looking its h264 but if I was buying a box for saorview I would not worry about the codec and get the correct tuners. How cheap does one want to go?
this may work but as its cheap etc

H264 is a fairly heavy codec to decode so going for the cheapest tuner may not be the best strategy.
