I struggled to find a dual HD card. I emailed Blackgold because they're due to release one soon, but it won't be until 2010 now unfortunately. Depends how long you're prepared to wait. Details here, but as I say it's not available just yet:

BGT3595 - BlackGold

In the meantime I bought a Tevii USB DVB-S2 box so I can at least watch/record one HD channel.

Hi photopeter, are you using that Mystique card successfully with MP? If so what is your setup please? e.g. Windows version etc. Does it suspend/wake OK?

Thanks,

Jon.

I bought an HDHomeRun box and really like it. I haven't had any problems.

    The previous Blackgold 6-in-1 card which I have now was about £100, so I would suspect
    this new one will be somewhere around the £150 mark, at a rough guess.

    Hopefully they will get it 100% right before they release it: the old one had quite a few issues.

    I also have never used a set-top box with MP, but I think that you need to use an IR emitter (aka "IR blaster"). The IRSS software controls the emitter, and transmits IR signals under the direction of MP. The IR signal is received by the IR receiver within the set-top box, and so can be used to change channel and so on. The set-top...

    I've setup my HDHomeRun in MP1 as (4) IPTV cards rather than Atsc. I can see the (4) Atsc cards, but just have them disabled. I did it this way so I didn't have to edit the channel names every time tested a new TV-server install. Anyway, it works. I don't know if this would get you past the BDA driver issue. I'll provide more...

    When I tested MP 2.5 some months ago using TVE3.5, I found that "scan for channels" failed to find any channels when I selected a DVB-T2 tuner (a TBS 6284) :(, but succeeded when I used a DVB-T tuner (a Pinnacle 2000i) :). Obviously the Pinnacle found only those channels broadcast in DVB-T MUXes (in the UK we have both DVB-T MUXes and...
