[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 689186, member: 82144"] Hi there Generally USB tuners for DVB-S/S2 aren't as good as PCI/PCI-e cards. They usually can't accept as wide a frequency range or symbol rates as PCI/PCI-e cards. That is all very technical though... Probably [B]the most important thing[/B] with DVB-C, DVB-T or DVB-S is not the card but [B]the codec[/B] that you choose to decode the TV signal. The simplest way to describe a codec is to say that it is a small bit of software that takes the signal from your TV card and puts it on the screen. An example of a codec or codec pack is FFDShow, CoreAVC, klite... There are [B]many[/B] codecs available! I think the TeeVii card you chose should work fine. Other users say [URL="https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/tv-cards-333/tevii-dvb-s2-pcie-s470-70004/"]it works well[/URL]... :) [/QUOTE]
