OK, thats fine, I guess I will get one of those and use it in my new media PC when I finally build that.

He he he, Brisbane. Where are you going?

i brought a avermedia card and it seems to be freezing my pc every few days and it wasnt much cheaper than the hvr3000 and it only has one tuner
plus sub uses hauppuage stuff so its going to have the best support really

we are just going north past jafaland havent been up that way for a few years
went to oz last year twice Brisbane/Sydney
didnt work hard enough this year so have to do it on the cheap

Oh OK, that is true. I will get one with a MCE remote, I was looking at the web interface at work today and the IR blaster to change channels will be very handy.

Oh OK, I don't really like Auckland, is too busy for my liking :p But I guess you are going past all that business. Cool, I havn't been for 13 years, so it should be good

make sure you get the mce remote(more buttons) not hauppuage one (less buttons)

Yeah, I was looking at that yesterday.

[Viper-Byte]

I am back

What do you think of this MCE remote? http://www.ascent.co.nz/productspecifica...mID=343203

Being OEM I will need hardware, so I think the HVR3000 will be fine, but what about the HVR4000 with DVB-S2? worth it or not?

[Etacovda]

its the remote ive got, it works perfectly for what you want - although that one doesnt show the coloured buttons, you might want to look into that as they are used gbpvr quite a bit, especially in some plugins

DVB-S2 apparently wont be coming here for a long time, if ever, so theres not much point.

[stustunz]

i have the coloured button type
looking at a couple of different sites it seems the only ones you can get now are the ones with no coloured buttons dont know why the coloured buttons are very usefull

[Viper-Byte]

OK, great.

What are the coloured buttons used for?

Could I use my Hauppauge remote for the coloured buttons? (not the most ideal situation though)
