I have a twinhan 1020. Need to check the version number. I've heard of using tsreader for this, but it isn't freeware.

Can anyone confirm if the DSS broadcasts from 101W still do not have encryption on the audio?

I think I have decided to just get a separate tuner for clearQAM. I like the looks of the Hauppauge cards. The 2250 has an FM input and can tune 2 TV channels at once (for simultaneous recording and watching different channels), so that would be nice, but then again not sure how often I would...

I looked up those Dell tuners and found some info saying they are only compatible with certain Dell computers??? What's the deal with that? Also, I need one compatible with Linux, too. I already have a Pinnacle Pro 800e USB stick for ATSC, so I may just keep using that and buy a cheap, well...

I did some research, and it looks like most cards that tune ATSC also tune QAM, but I am confused on how they work. I am interested in the Hauppauge WinTV HVR 2250, but not sure if it allows for both cable and antenna to be plugged in and tuned simultaneously. Here are the free channels I want...

Found one of these for $1 at a local thrift store. Amazon.com: 3 In 8 Out Multi-Switch: Electronics I just had to brag on here about it since nobody I see on a daily basis has any idea what I am talking about and gets glazed over eyes when I start telling them about anything FTA, haha. Anyway...

Right now my favorite is The Pentagon Channel - AMC 1 :)

Does anyone know of a PCI card that allows you plug in both an OTA and clear QAM source so that you can tune them simultaneously? I want to be able to tune and integrate my FTA/OTA/clearQAM channels all at the same time and have them appear in my channel guide without having to physically...

Happy Holidays to everyone!

Dang! I will have to check out the new units. Are the new Advancetune units supposed to have blindscan capability? The opensat s9 is a STB, right? I don't really want a STB as I am trying to integrate everything into my home theater PC. PCI or PCIe is my preferred reciever format. Do you know if...

Rick's Satellite shows the Prof 8000 having a PTG Engine 1.7 Blind Scan Interface. I have no experience with it, so no idea whether it works or not. However, I do plan on getting one of these soon. Prof8000 Does anyone know if the Prof Revolution 7301/8000 cards support 64bit Windows 7...

Do any of you have any FTA experience with DVBLogic? DVBLogic - provider of digital streaming connectivity solutions

Does anyone know if dvbDream works with Windows 7 64bit?

Do you have a satellite dish and LNB yet? Make sure to check out the FTA FAQ's to make sure you get the right kind of equipment needed to receive FTA channels. Make sure the tuner card you get is compatible with your version of Windows 7 (32bit or 64bit). I am working on revamping my home...

yes, there is. you can check out some of our sponsor's websites and find one or you can just google it. Hauppage, technotrend, twinhan are name brands and will give you a starting point. if you have any questions about any specific card and/or its drivers then this is the place to ask!
