[mythtvnz] DVB-T PCI Card for linux?

[Duncan Kennington]

I have a Hauppage Nova TD-500 which a lot of folks have had trouble with,
but mine has never skipped a beat.  Dual tuners is definitely a bonus.
They're no longer sold new but they pop up on Trademe from time to time
(there's one on there for $70 at the moment).  PCI slots are getting few
and far between on modern hardware so stuff like this should become
increasingly more available.
