| 704842 | 2008-09-13 01:28:00 | Greetings folks, I know its been asked before, But seeing as I have just got freeview hooked up I'll throw it out there again. Best current TV card available in NZ that can decode Freeview? I could buy a second decoder and use my current TV card, But I figure that money would be better spent on an upgraded TV card that can do the job of the decoder. So, any recommendations?Preferably has to be able to record/encode into any format I want to use/is resident on the machine, But I could live with an onboard mpeg hardware encoder. |

| 704845 | 2008-09-13 03:41:00 | That's a DVB-T card, not a satellite one - you need a UHF antenna for it, not a dish. | Erayd (23) | ||
| 704846 | 2008-09-13 06:03:00 | Hauppauge Nova S Plus card if you have DVB-S/Satellite Freeview. They have no hardware encoder like the analog tuner cards/some hybrid cards as the stream via DVB-S is already MPEG2. Don't need a very grunty PC to view it on, anything that can play a DVD will be fine. Recordings are about 3/2GB for a one hour show. |
