hmm. it is not so expensive.
btw i also need the satellite receiver equipment too. i have a very old
80cm "antenna", using it for receiving analog radios from Astra.
i dunno if it's enough for digital data.

and which card (hauppage or siemens) is preferred?
i mean available open register-level docs, linux drivers for capture/send
streams, control tuner etc.

i wanna try it, and if it seems to be usable under linux (i can develop
tools and mplayer support for it) i'll buy one.
i like this DVB image quality :)
