What PC do you intend to use? DVB cards come in two flavors,sofware based and hardware based. Software based cards need a much beefier PC to run well. 2ghz and 512+ ram and a video card with TV-out(s-video) and a sound card. Hardware cards can run fine on less than half the horsepower and you don't need tv-out or sound . It's on the card.
There'sother considerations as well,type of lnb,s-video length. It's best to list everything you have then fill in what you need,then buy the card.

Thanks Pyotr for the info , I am running a amd 2200/ 512 ram ati all in wonder 32 sdram or ddr can't remember with all the video and audio ins and outs, so from what you posted I think a software based dvb would work for me , mainly I would just be logging.


Thanks again Pyotr for the Post :) :)
