MediaPortal Forum - View Single Post - Which additional DVB-S2 card beside my TechnoTrend S2-3200

Hi everybody.

I think about upgrading my HTPC with a second HDTV (H.264) capable DVB-S2 card.
I currently use the TV Server 0.3 with a TechnoTrend S2-3200 and everything is running well (including HDTV).

But is it a good idea to buy a second S2-3200 or is it better to use a card from a different company. I have read here in the forum some where that the TV server may have problems with two similar cards ... this would mean it is better to buy a different one.

What experiences has you made?

Bye and Thx
Lars
