TV Card for Saorview & Freeview/Freesat

    I'm looking for recommendations for a good TV card for my HTPC that will enable me to get Freeview/Freesat and Saorview. I have two free satellite connections coming into my sitting room so a card that has the same functionalities as a SKYHD box would be ideal i.e PVR.

    I live in an apartment so sticking up an outdoor aerial for the Irish digital stations would be tricky, would I be able to receive them via the satellite cables?

    Price is not really an issue on the card as I don't mind spending a few € on something solid that will do the job. My system has an Intel Q6600 & a 9600GT graphics card & I'm running Win7 Ultimate if that makes any difference.


    Thanks,

    TheZohan

    blackgold card will do both dtt and freesat, you won't get dtt with the sat cable, but a small indoor aerial could work if you are close to a transmitter
