Does anything support video encoding at reasonable speed?

I need an h264 "genlock" device that could do reasonable resolutions & frame rates (720p@30fps, 1920p@15fps). It should be stupid simple if devices let you put some code between sensor and the encoder, but basically nothing does. Apparently, you can do it on the rPi, but it doesn't have enough power to decode a stream, "genlock" and encode it in real time. (Though, I'm going to try - maybe it can be done).



Yes it does and uses standard linux v4l2 interface via the Samsung MFC.
