    Scan have the Pinnacle 2000i Dual DVB-T PCI TV Card for sale at £34.

    NOTE: it is OEM, does not come with any packaging, software or remote (probably why its so cheap!). But software can be downloaded directly from pinnacle.

    I bought one and it works great, both tuners shown in MP, great picture.

    (I am in no way associated to Scan, but this seems like a good deal, so just letting people know!)

    :D

    Can you let us know how these cope with standby, being pci do not expect any settings to be changed, bar the default shutdown option.

    So if these aren't using USB tuners on a board, how are they getting two tuners on a single PCI slot to work with the BDA driver system?

    Paranoid: I don't really use standby, so cant say - any easy tests that I could do to find out the info you need?

    funkstar: no idea how it works internally, but it does what it should :)

    Yes put windows into standby, no MP running and then wake it up 15 seconds later, wait 10 seconds once resumed, open MP and see if you can watch TV, would just love to know :)
