Default New Phillips TV Chip for PCI-Xpress

Looks like phillips have designed a TV card chip for PCI-Xpress.

It can receive multiple channels at once, allowing you to record and view channels simultaneously, without the need for 2+ cards. The advantages of PCI-Xpress bandwidth.

A little old, so hopefully we might start seing some cards using it soon.

Ever had a look at the Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-500? This dual-tuner card is already fully supported in MP, even multiples of them!

See how good it works here: http://mediaportal.sourceforge.net/mpreview.html
