Nebula PCI Card

[jaymes]

Hi guys, have one of these cards in PC. My area, Midlands is now transmitting HD Broadcasts.
Done a scan and cant find any HD Channels.

Anyone using Nebula PCI Card and receiving HD?

Many thanks in advance for any input

If you're looking at Sutton Coldfield there's a lot of engineering work going on atm. After years of trouble free digital viewing, I'm finding several channels are currently unwatchable (in preparation for digital switchover so may be just a matter of time. h__p://www.ukfree.tv/shutdowndetail.php?tx=SK113003&irt=592348#b592348

Yes Ive seen quite a few comments about Sutton Coldfield recently. Of course now almost all the remote areas have been DSO'd the engineering teams are moving onto the transmitters that affect more folk

With an SD card you will not 'find' HD channels, according to their website they will not be selling HD cards until 2011

From early 2011, this range will be extended with the inclusion of multiple-tuner USB and PCIe (PCI express) models, and tuners capable of Freeview-HD (DVB-t2 high definition) reception.

Many thanks for response guys.

Yes I am receiving from Sutton Coldfield.
Thought these cards were capable of HD Reception, as they were receiving the early Crystal Palace HD Test transmissions and latest software is HD.

I suspect the early test transmissions were in DVB-T, which is the same as used for SD transmissions. The regular HD transmissions are in DVB-T2 which need a new tuner.
