[linux-dvb] Which DVB-S card ?

[Vincent Bernat <bernat@free.fr>]

Hello !

There are many DVB-S card supported but, for example, a Pinnacle PC TV
Sat  (using the bt8xx-dvb driver  and the cx24110 frontend) seems more
processor intensive than a    Nova-S (using the budget-ci  driver  and
stv0299  frontend). The Pinnacle generates a  lot of IRQ.  It also has
some latences to lock the signal.

Now, trying each card is a  bit expensive. Are  there some cards which
are better  than the  Nova-S  (in the  budget category)  ?  Skystar  2
maybe ?
