Hi,

I would use the card for HD channels but my provider (Canal Digital Finland) are backwards, they won't activate the HD channels for me unless I buy their own digibox (some sandan rubbish) then they want to lock my card and box together.

So unfortunately I can't test the S2 functionality until they get their heads out of their a****s and let me give them money.

Anyhow I noticed in the other thread you were thinking about the Technotrend card, FORGET THE TT CARD RIGHT NOW!!!!!!

Unless of course you like to infuriate yourself or your family, like extra stress, can handle rebooting at least 4 times a day, and enjoy the excitement of wondering wether your recordings worked or not.

Oh and also most of the time shutdown or suspend fails because of some driver failure, since removing the TT card my standby / shutdown record has been 100%

It's just not worth it.
