Hi,
I Want to buy a new DVB card to watch TV channels with VDR. The important point is I want it to have CI interface, So I could use CAM to view encrypted channels.
I knew cards such as NEXUS, but they discontinued long time ago. I also know Technisat SkyStar HD 2, but as I know it is not compatible with VDR.
So, Does anybody has recommendation for a card with this conditions? 1: good compatibility with VDR, Linux and good stability. 2: Has CI interface, and CI is supported under Linux and VDR. 3: Be in production.
Thanks. A. HMH.
Hello, Have you asked google?
If you want mpeg2 decoder you need a fullfeatured card. These are discontinued right.
Budget card with CI interface can you buy from knc one, Technotrend, hauppauge etc. Have a look to www.linuxtv.org/wiki

As I said before, I know some cards, but I don't know which are supported under VDR, especially its CI part. For instance, I don't know if I buy a SkyStar HD 2, would it, and its CI is supported under VDR, because MultiProto should be available for VDR in 1.7.0.

for the Sky Star HD 2 (same as Azurewave AD SP400 CI)
Common Interface support: Still none.
may be the TechnoTrend TT-budget S2-3200 is more usefull

ok this means you need a PCI card http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVB-S_PCI_Cards
even if not procuced anymore the TechnoTrend Premium S-2300 is still sold, with the growing market for dvb-s2 the the market for used "old" dvb-s cards will be good

so YOU excititly asked for a dvb-s2 card
the TechnoTrend Budget S-1500 with CI for 70€ http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/TechnoTrend_TT-budget_S-1500 (thats not the only one)
if you wnat hardware decodung for mpeg2 (no real need anymore) you can use a old dxr3 card
be aware that the ci is bound to a card, a second card would need a second ci with second decryption card
