Great to hear N!
Can you give me any recommendations on hardware, such as DVB-S card, dish style/type, CI/CAM support etc?
Anyone out there heard of an ATSC plugin for vdr?

DVB-S works fine in North America -- no problems whatsoever.
If you want digital cable, you will need to go with a card that uses ATSC. I don't think VDR has a plugin working for it but I do know that MythTV does. Of course, that would only work with unscambled ATSC digital signals -- which many cable companies provide for their regular subscription channels.

This is what I heard. No DVB - 8-VSB on terrestrial and DAVIC (not DOCSIS) on cable.
Looks like the only DVB I'm going to be able to do is DVB-S. I can't even do DirecTV which uses DSS and (US) NDS.
I think it's going to be very hard to get much going with DVB and VDR in the USA!!
hi,

Only have experience with DVB-S, but the T cards should work as well.
Really? I had the impression that the U.S. would use ATSC DTV.
Or it this (again) something that the broadcaster can freely choose?
