Hi at all, I am new here, and I have already my first question. I would like to create my own HTPC which I will use for a storage server as well.
I have found this TV card. I need a CI and DVB-S2 for HD
http://www.tbsdtv.com/products/tbs6928se-dvb-s2-tv-tuner-ci-pcie-card.html
I will use an Intel i5 or i3 CPU with HD Graphics 3000. I am confused about hardware decoding, as the Intel GPU unit should do as native (H.264). But how about the TV PCI cards. Does each DVD-S2 card H.264 decoding onboard? or does the MediaPortal doing all this work like software decoding.
Or maybe should I use an other TV card?
thanks, great forum..)
bye
