I am building a HTPC and have an HP expresscard tv tuner, which is essentially a Hauppage WinTV-HVR-1500. I figured
I may as well use it with the HTPC if I can, but I can not seem to find any specific info on whether this Expresscard runs off
the USB or Pci-x bus, as based on the Expresscard standard, a device can be designed to use one or (unless I am mistaken) both. Expresscard adapters which plug into USB slots are much less expensive than adapters to interface with the Pci-x bus,
so I wanted to figure out which bus this tv tuner runs on before wasting money on an adapter which won't work.
