[QUOTE="omasse, post: 810430, member: 116556"] [b]MediaPortal Version[/b]: 1.2.1 [b]Windows Version[/b]: 7 My current capture card is a dual tuner ATSC-only card, and I'd like to be able to get an extra card to get FM channels. PCI or USB is preferred, as I have only one PCIe slot left and I want to keep it handy. Here's what I found until now: - I found some really cheap USB tuners on Ebay (14$) but there is no mention of the chipset they have, so it's a guess I'm not willing to take. - Someone is selling a brand new obscure card (YUAN PG583) for 20$ including shipping. But there's not a lot of info on this chipset online, and it seems to be similar to the one used by the Pinnacle 800i - many here have reported here in 2008-2009 that it did not work correctly. - The "best" one seems to be a Kworld PC150-U which I found on newegg - 45$ with shipping, but I get an extra ATSC tuner with this one. Any advice? Suggestion? I'm especially interested to hear about fellows who made the FM tuner of MP work with the PG583. Thank you [/QUOTE]
