Hardware

I'm planning an Asterisk configuration that should record videocalls and then feed it to an application.

From what I've researched, it seems like app_h234m is the way to go (http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+app_h324m+compatibility). But it's not clear to me what are the hardware requirements for this.

Can someone enlighten me?
