United Kingdom
Hi,
I am desperately wanting a dual DVB system, and am having possible problems with signal strength, so I really want to only have one aerial on my HTPC. Hence the need for only a single card.
I don't like the idea of the Dvico Fusion, which is effectively one PCI and one USB tuner on a card, and it is pretty expensive in the UK.
The Hauppauge Nova-t 500 is taking forever to arrive, which leaves me with one choice, as far as I can tell, the Terratec Cinergy 2400i.
If you have one of these, could you please post to let me know how well it works in MediaPortal? Does it need fantastic signal strength? Any comparisons with Nova-t or similar cards would be particularly welcome.
Going to have to buy a new motherboard as well for the PCI-E slot, so it's important I get it right!
If anyone swears by the Dvico card, that would also be interesting to hear.
Thanks,
Mark
PS. Thanks to the devs for all their hard work. Too much bashing going on at the moment!
