Hi Chaps.
I hope that I am posting in the right section.
I am building a media centre and I will need a PCI card to get satellite signals from Hotbird and Astra on 28e. The card needs to be HD and work with Windows 7 Ultimate. I will be installing XMBC on the system as well and will probable not use Windows Media Centre as I am not familiar with it.
My system as it stands is as follow:
Asus p8z77i deluxe mini itx motherboard
intel i5 3570k
4GB Crucial BL25664BA1339 2x2 GB, DDR3 SDRAM, 1333 MHz, DIMM 240-pin
128gb SSD by sandisk
PSU CIT pentium 4 Model-400U
Matx HTPC case
Running windows 7 ultimate 64bits
I only have 1 PCI available on the motherboard with HDMI connection. I will not be using this HTPC for gaming at all only for watching TV, movies...
I am looking for a dual tuner PCI (or USB if they are any good) HD satellite tuner DVB-S2. I will not need terrestrial for freeview only satellite.
Can you suggest me a decent card which works on windows and xmbc only, allows PVR recording with twin tuner and HD and is not too expensive?
I am quite desperate. Many many thanks.
Marty
