Hey All!
I have possibly a lame question here:
I am now realizing that I want Free to Air services. So I started looking into an FTA receiver and found out that that can be handled by a DVB card. This is a very attractive prospect as I could remove the need for an external reciever and the USB UIRT.
Firstly am I correct in my assumption? I can use this card to replace the above and have GB control channel changing etc?
Secondly, I am in Canada. I currently have a Hauppage WinTV PVR USB2 and am very happy with Hauppage. So would like to get a Hauppage DVB if possible. Looking at their website they take about European standards but nothing about North America. So can anyone suggest a DVB that I can use in Canada and that works well with GB? I would like to splurge and get on board encode/decode functionality if I can.
Thanks in advance for any help!
