    which pc receiver?

    Thx again! Yes, I'm questioning you all this once I need to decide the one to use on my HTPC. As I'm still finishing up my HTPC setup I think I will wait some more months to see the new products from TBS. It is for sure one of the candidates of purchase but I still have others on my list as the...

    which pc receiver?

    Thx guacharaca... Do you have it installed on wich OS? Win or Linux? I'm planning to use it on Linux and use MythTV as the TV watching/recording program. As far as I understood you did recommend it, right? Do you have any material/docs/tips you could share? If yes, please send me a PM about...

    which pc receiver?

    Well, it's a good sign but you have a PCIe 1X on this board right? My concerns are to use a non-video card (tuner) on the PCI Express 16X slot I have on my Zotac IONITX-L-E (it's an update of the F-E). Once I got a case that has a rear slot for a PCI Tuner I really would like to use a PCIe...

    Want to build a Linux based HTPC

    Which one to pick? Thanks a lot guys for the replies... I'm still trying to decide which tuner to get. Yesterday I was reading about the TBS 6890 tuner and it seams to be really good. Its specs read very good and it's also a dual tuner. So what do you guys recommend me for the DVB-S / S2...

    Want to build a Linux based HTPC

    And do you guys know if it would work on a PCI Express 16X slot? The motherboard is Zotac IONITX-L-E? Furthermore, I will need to use a flexible PCI raiser (PCIe 16x to PCIe 16x) just to be able to put that board right on the rear of my case (Silverstone LC09B-ITV). Thx in advance for the...

    a couple questions before i buy

    I'm on the market also to buy a Linux compatible DVB-S / DVB-S2. I'm shooting for DVBWorld 2006 (PCIe) or DVB-S2 CA USB 2104D. However, I'm kind of concerned if the Prof tuners that uses newer chipsets wouldn't be a better option. I will use this tuner on an HTPC based on Zotac IONITX-L-E...

    which pc receiver?

    Guys, I do have the same concerns about the best/reliable DVB-S / DVB-S2 tuners for my HTPC setup. I'm going towards the DVBWorld 2006 PCie 1X but I still need to know if I can plug it to a PCI Express 16X slot on a Zotac IONITX-L-E motherboard. Furthermore, will MythTV (Mythbuntu 10.04)...

    Want to build a Linux based HTPC

    crackt, thx for your reply. I will not use diseq. So it's not a deal-breaker for me. What I need is a reliable tuner for DVB-S, DVB-S2 for live TV watching. The other concern is if a PCIe 1x card would work on PCIe 16x or if it would be best to turn to a USB tuner. What would you recommend...

    Want to build a Linux based HTPC

    PCIe non-graphic card on PCIe 16x slot Hi guys, I'm building my HTPC also and it's on top of a Zotac IONITX-L-E motherboard. This board has a free PCI Express 16X slot (PCIE x16 Generation 2.0 compatible) and my idea is to use it to hold a DVB-S / DVB-S2 tuner once I got a Silverstone case...
