I am currently using a Haupauge Nova PCI DVB-S card under GBPVR with Freesat in the UK.
I would like to shift over to nPVR and I would like to be able to record from two transponders at the same time - or watch one while recording on the other.
The machine I use as a PVR is a beefy little box with 2G of memory and 500G of disk that manages to record multiple streams via the Nova without breaking into a sweat.
However, it only has ONE conventional PCI slot - so I cannot add a second card (unless it is USB).
I have read the various threads about dual tuner cards and I am thoroughly confused.
What DUAL DVB-S or S2 tuner, PCI (*NOT* PCI-EXPRESS), cards are known to work with nPVR??
I'm sure there was a matrix of cards known to work with GBPVR - but I dont seem to be able to find it now (and I guess it may be out of date).
Any recommendations welcome.
