mpeg4 is only a software thing, there is no h264 ff-card

i dont have one so this will only be a good guess:
cam-support -> the ci extension for all satelco cards (hdtv dvb-c,
dvb-s2, dvb-s, dvb-c) is the same
(http://www.satelco.de/htm/shop/easywatch_pci/index.htm) and the
linuxtv.org wiki lists the dvb-s satelco card as clone of knc1, because
they using the same ci extension the dvb-c version will also be a knc1
clone (Satelco EasyWatch HDTV PCI (DVB-C) will be the same as the KNC
ONE TV-Station DVB-C Plus)
the knc1 dvb-s card does have linux ci support
http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/KNC1_TV-Station_DVB-S
so the dvb-c (hdtv) will also support it

beside this they look similar

So to put it simply: Just buy the normal version - the cards are the same.

The support for MPEG-4 comes in the form of codecs included on a CD that 
is shipped with the card. The card itself supports MPEG-4 just like any 
other: regardless of the encoding used the card passes the broadcasted 
material to a piece of software, which in turn tries to decode it. VDR 
can also do that when patched with Reinhard Nissl's h.264 patch and used 
together with a software output plugin.
