I am living in Europe and was curious if there is any PC satellite card with DVB-S2 and MPEG4 out? If not when will we start to see such cards?
Found the following link today (sorry only in German)

Sub, do you think we will have support for this card in future GBPVR releases? I would considering buying one.

Maybe. I dont know yet.
Have a look at this card

they have a document download there
that describes the reference design of the card

What do you think Sub can it be a future card for GBpvr
what can we do to help you make the new generation of
dvb-s2 cards and hopefully cam to work?
To be honest, unless they send me a freebie, then probably not.

I've not been able to test the DVB-S2 support myself (no visible DVB-S2 satellites here yet), but in theory GB-PVR works with the Hauppauge HVR-4000 for DVB-S2. (MPEG4 is a different issue though)
I got a HVR-4000 card from Hauppauge last week and it works fine with the latest GBPVR release. However, I did not managed to watch HD programs broadcasting over DVB-S2 with MPEG4. Any idea what I need to configure differently?
@ Swissueli

Does your HVR-4000 work now with DVB-S2 broadcasts?
Did you have to do anything special to get it work?
