[linux-dvb] Re: Can a Hauppage DVB-S receive HDTV?

[Pierre-Alexandre FAVIER <favier@enib.fr>]

Hello,
There were some tests on Astra in France about HDTV last week. Some
people have reported that Haupauge Nexus has a bandwith limit which
prevent from receiving HDTV stream correctly, whereas budget cards
(Hauppauge Nova or SkyStar 2) did it well (with a BIG processor). This
hardware limitation on full featured cards was confirmed by Hauppauge...

I've got some french links speaking about that, if someone is
interested...
