[linux-dvb] Re: DVB-T and CAM support

According to what I have read, I believe that this connects to the premium
card, rather than the budget card. What Hauppauge sell is the TT-DVB-T card
as their WinDVB-T card. 

It should work with a WinDVB-T 1.2 card from TechnoTrend, which is the
premium version. 

I have one of these on order,  well as a TT-DVB-S and a TT-CAM/CI. The order
would have been shipped today but <RANT>Paypal have introduced a new rule
thanks to Visa. It seems that if your original Visa card you connected to
Paypal was replaced by Visa and was given a new number, your old card is
still registered as the one that PayPal check. Its been disabled by Visa and
hence gives you a zero credit limit on PayPal. According to PayPal UK this
morning, the only solution is (and I quote) "register a card other than Visa
or open a new PayPal account". Thank you PayPal and Visa. </RANT> 

Sorry, folks, that nothing to do with DVB cards or Linux, but I just had to
get it off my chest. I feel better now! 


So, Steve, watch this space. When I eventually get my cards, I will let you
know if it all plugs together.

I now believe that the hardware required for the above would be a
Technotrend 
DVB-T 1.2 plus 3.5" Common-Interface.

Has anybody tried this combination. I notice that there have been
significant 
discussions on the usability of the Technotrend 1.2 hardware, but I don't
know 
if it refers to capture only or decode quality.

Thanks again,
Steve
