I wouldn't recommend the Lite - the chipset is crap (BT878). Suggestions: Fusion HDTV (non-Lite) Ultraview HDTV (non-Lite) (identical to Fusion but a few dollars cheaper) KWorld Xpert DVB-T PCI The KWorld is the cheapest - $132 shipped from auspcmarket.com.au. The hardware doesn't differ much between the three. > However, to record Foxtel via svideo - do I need an Analogue Card? eg > Does the hardware decoder in say a Happauge 250 help with analogue > capture? Or would I be just as happy recording Foxtel via the svideo > input in the DN-TV card? I don't know if the analogue inputs are supported, especially not at the same time as the DVB-T. Certainly the Fusion Lite couldn't do analog and digital at the same time. > Are there any Aussies out there who have a good solution to recording > Foxtel. > I don't suppose anyone's going to crack Foxtel's NDS encryption any > time soon ;-) Foxtel analog picture is so awful I wouldn't bother :-( Or would you be using the SVideo out of the Foxtel Digital STB? Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt VK3SB <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Thanks for all the comments so far. Please note I've got a Foxtel Digital STB and wish to copy svideo as the Foxtel digital stream is encrypted. I have a work colleague who has got the DNTV-Live card running Foxtel and DVB-T under slackware - although at this stage I'm not sure if this is more a proof of concept than a viable solution. Oh well still to make my decision? I'll let you know how I go, as my requirements are fairly unique. Jeremy This message is intended for the addressee named and may contain confidential information.
