[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1274909, member: 109222"] Hi. I'm a bit astonished that no one mentioned the DigitalDevices Cine S2 as a reliable Tuner card. Imho it's the best card available today. Or was it because this is a dual tuner card? But afair the DVBSky also is a dual tuner card. I had one before the Cine S2 but did not remember the exact number... The DVBSky was good but the CIne S2 was better a bit. Nowadays I don't have any tuner cards build into my TV server, I'm using SAT>IP... The cine s2 still is here as a spare part if something went wrong with my SAT>IP router on a Saturday evening... Aside this I can proof that on a Windows PC the graphic cards are made for gaming, not for video playback. That was one of the many reasons why I changed over to ARM systems where the GPU most often are optimized for video playback and in general those systems are extremely cheap and tiny and completely silent... You get the power of a 500$ graphics card (for video playback, not for gaming of course) in a 50$ system, that is complete incl power supply and housing... [/QUOTE]
