Need advice for new card

[Reddwarf]

I'v been looking at the Leadtek WinFast DTV2000 H, does anyone know if this card is supported? Can it be used for reception of cable signals? HDTV? How about pay-tv (with some soft-cam perhaps)? Any other suggestions?

I dont think this model has a hardware encoder, so wont be usable for analog in GB-PVR. DVB-T should be fine.

Can it be used for reception of cable signals?

The card is capable of analog signals via antenna or cable, and digital signals via DVB-T. As mentioned above, the analog wont be usable, but the DVB-T should.

HDTV? How about pay-tv (with some soft-cam perhaps)?

Yes, if these are received via DVB-T.

If you're interested in digital cable (DVB-C), or analog, this isnt the card for you.

Thanks Sub, is there a hybrid card on the market that has HW-encoder for analog and is capable of dvb-c reception?

I'm not aware of any DVB-C devices that also have analog with hardware encoder. You'd probably need to use two devices to give you this functionality.
