the card receives a whole tranponder (~35MBit???) and sorts out the audio and video streams it needs (APID, VPID), after muxing the data it can be played or recorded to disk
a DVB-s will do that by there own on the card (ARM), Nova cards needs the pocessor for that - good: no firmware that cant be changed, bad: needs more processor power
