If you have a more specific questions, then post it, otherwise you can find lots of documentation about setting up GB-PVR here: http://www.gbpvr.com/pmwiki/.

GB-PVR only supports the DVB-S aspects of this card, not the DVB-S2.

Is this a Technotrend issue or DVB-S2 in general?? anything to watch out for?

Martin (thinking of getting a dvb-s2 card, but a cheap one )

DVB-S2 isnt convered by the Microsoft BDA spec so different manufacturers support DVB-S2 in different ways, requiring specific coding for each type of card. In theory GB-PVR might support DVB-S on the FireDTV and Hauppauge cards, but I've never tested it.

OK, thanks sub, I hadn't realised that. I'll hold off until one of the more adventurous (and/or richer) Brits has a go

Sorry sub, forget all of that for now. I've just twigged that the current HD output that I can probably get is still on DVB-S and the changeover is at an indeterminate future date.

Silly me.

Yeah, FreeSat is on DVB-S not DVB-S2.
