TV card recommendations

Theta

Hi All,

I have to admit this is the one area I have no knowledge.

Can some one give me a recommendation?

Cheers

My HTPC only has USB so I can only comment on USB based tuners.

The 2 I have are :
Hautpague 900H (DVB-T) - works great with Irish DTT
PCTV 460e (DVB-S2) - perfect for FreeSat HD

Both picked up by media center on a windows 7 (64 bit) HTPC.

Thanks Wibbleman.

Im looking for an internal card though.

Also Id like analog and digital if that possible.

Thanks

Marc

The best internal card (with windows 7 64bit) would be:

Black Gold BGT3595 (Dual DVB-S, and DVB-T)

Works great with media center.

This works fine for me on Media Center on Win7.

Also works grand with Mediaportal

Don't know about 64bit, never bothered, never needed more than 4GB of Memory on a HTPC
