I got the same dvb-c card and I also got it from usa-x. Currently my problems is that I get realy bad reception on some channels, the weird part is that the bad channels change when I switch computer. The card works perfectly with windows and the bundled software, it's slow but work. I haven't found any good solution to my problems so far. The remote controller I got with my card was a serial port type and the remote was one of those universal remotes, "Kingman 12 in 1 Universal remotecontroller" The remote smelled funny when I got it. I expected some kind of remote that was connected to the dvb card directly, but I guess this solution with a serial port remote is more flexibel. Any remote works, it's just a matter of learning lirc how to handle it (wasn't hard) > As the card seems to have mpeg2 hardware decoder, > composite video out, spdif audio out, it seems to be a pretty good > alternative for the VDR project. > But if you have some other recommendations for the card, I am > open for > the suggestions. > > Mika -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
