Just to pick up on the original post.. why are DVB-S cards becoming hard to get? Is it because of the shift to DVB-T & HD? I was going to build a second system for a family member - no Sky, no HD available, just Freeview (which IMHO is becoming quite good with lost of interesting things on the new channels).<br>
<br>So all I need is a couple of SkyStars or Technotrend thingees. Are any second-hand ones on the list available?<br><br>- David<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Feb 25, 2009 at 2:54 PM, Robin Gilks <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:g8ecj@gilks.org">g8ecj@gilks.org</a>></span> wrote:<br>

wish to double up to get both multiplexes from D1. A PCI-E X1 would be<br>
ideal since I'm upgrading the m/b soon anyway (but I doubt there will be<br>
one at a sensible price even if they are available!!!)<br>
<br>
I see Hads is having problems getting Technotrend cards and I'm shy of<br>
ordering a no-name card from TradeMe in case it isn't supported under<br>
Linux.<br>
