hi all
long time no post.
ive recently built myself a HTPC for playing HD movies and suchlike.
now i wanna stick a DVB-S2 card in it.
there seems to be far more available these days, with trusty old skystar2's playing the field, so which do i go for?
im not that bothered about twin tuners yet, providing i can put 2 seperate cards in later to make up for it.
i seem to remember the old skystar being a bit of a pain with drivers and software, hopefully things have improved.
ideally i want the card to work seamlessly in windows 7 media centre if possible, so the wife can use it.
ive seen a TBS 6920 DVB-S2 at £46, but is it any use or just cheap tat?
any suggestions most welcome.
