I am not aware of any HDTV cards out that even support the broadcast flag. The bill was never passed (http://www.eff.org/deeplinks/archives/003555.php), so no card is required to support it at this time. Please, anyone correct me on this if I am wrong. For more information about this you can go to http://www.eff.org/broadcastflag/.
