It has no tuner but one can just use a seperate tuner card or hope somebody builds a version with added tuner/tuners in the future. One could even run VDR on a stand-alone board with the same decoder chip. But again, somebody would first have to build it in quantity.

Reminds me of old electronics magazine 'Byte', there was one fellow, Steve Ciarcia, with all kind of hardware projects. He allways said 'the most efficient compiler is solder' -- If it's worth doing, it's worth doing in hardware. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Ouch! Well, maybe we should all chip in a couple dollars and buy Klaus a new pc that can handle h264.

I am not interested in software players that might not even run on my 450 MHz VDR. Until then, normal MPEG2/DVB-S does just fine for me.
