Yes it does work at this time with the pchdtv driver... I don't see how it
could ever work with the DVB driver (differing philosophies of data handling).
This is a VERY important feature for me for a couple reasons:
#1 The card has it... it should be supported
#2 Those of us in the fringe need the NTSC channels to cover for
the various LPs and such that do not have a ATSC broadcast.
#3 When on the fringe being able to fallback to the NTSC when the ATSC
is not an option (due to rain.. etc.. messing with signal) although
not supported yet would be a GREAT feature and I can see it happening
fairly quickly after Daniel's patches go in. Recording snowy something
is better than recording nothing. On my HD2000 card I rarely hit more
than 68% signal on the best stations which as you can guess is
marginal in bad weather.
#4 Although WinTV cards and such are cheap... they take another PCI
slot which most media PCs seem to be short on :} Hence both on one card
is VERY nice when you want to do video capture from a video
surveillance system that feeds onto your antenna line and such.
#5 profit ?!? (err... ooops... how'd that get in there)
