Hi,
I’m looking for some DVB-T MPEG4 tuners for my Media Portal (I do not need a CAM).
My TV-Server does not have a lot of expansions slots so I’ve been looking at USB tuners.
I previously had a USB tuner which had a few issues (it was a hybrid tuner though).
Specifically I’m looking at:
Terratec T5, Dual DVB-T
Technotrend MiniUSB Stick
Hauppauge WinTV MiniStick
All should have BDA drivers.
My questions are:
Are USB Tuners in general worse than PCI(e) tuners?
Is it realistic that my TV server (Athlon 64 x2 2,8Ghz, 2GB RAM) can use 4 USB tuners concurrently?
Can someone recommend or recommend against one of the above tuners?
Thank you for any input.
