Where to find what kind of DVB card to use i Sweden?

Joche · 2007-03-16, 23:18

First off: I'm not genuine interested in the TV thing, the cards, the systems etc.

Yet: It would be cool to put a DVB card into the HTPC just because I can. So, can someone recommend a single card that can take the terrestrial signals in Sweden and make some TV out of it?

My price span is somewhere between 500 - 1500SEK.

Hi Joche,

I guess the choice of card depend on the size of your wallet etc.

I have a Twinhan Ter-CI which can take the Free-To-Air channels as well as Boxer channels, see http://www.twinhan.com/product_terrestrial_3030.asp. It has worked really nicely and costs about 1200 SEK. Not that many cards support encrypted channels so consider what channels you'd like to watch.

Remember, you need a reasonably good signal from the antenna so this may be an area to look into as well if you have limited budget.

You should also check the list of supported TV-cards here:

Hope this helps!
