My cards are DVB-T PCI cards, and thus you plug an antenna into them. The only downside with these cards is they dont have UHF in and out. They only have UHF in, so I had to buy a jaycar UHF splitter and then run 2 cables to the cards. ie. one cable per each card. Just as well my tv points for the house use a mast head amp already. So it makes no difference to either tuners quality. Welcome to come over and take a peek at the product running. I found some C program that someone wrote which changes the mapping of the usb module in memory so that the USB HID remote recv. unit allows the remote to work perfectly, downside is any USB keyboards plugged in also have its keys mapped. But most machines sitting in a tv unit wouldnt have a keyboard Down the track I'd be tempted to get hold of a Mini-Itx machine and get it to netboot from the backend with just enough OS nfs mounted to run a frontend on it remotely over lan. I guess that will wait until I can afford to buy the gear. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
