Has anyone tried one of these new cards with VDR?

Or any other DVB-C card supporting CI/CAM and MPEG-4 ?

The support for MPEG-4 comes in the form of codecs included on a CD that is shipped with the card. The card itself supports MPEG-4 just like any other: regardless of the encoding used the card passes the broadcasted material to a piece of software, which in turn tries to decode it. VDR can also do that when patched with Reinhard Nissl's h.264 patch and used together with a software output plugin.

So to put it simply: Just buy the normal version - the cards are the same.

mpeg4 is only a software thing, there is no h264 ff-card
i dont have one so this will only be a good guess: cam-support -> the ci extension for all satelco cards (hdtv dvb-c, dvb-s2, dvb-s, dvb-c) is the same (http://www.satelco.de/htm/shop/easywatch_pci/index.htm) and the linuxtv.org wiki lists the dvb-s satelco card as clone of knc1, because they using the same ci extension the dvb-c version will also be a knc1 clone (Satelco EasyWatch HDTV PCI (DVB-C) will be the same as the KNC ONE TV-Station DVB-C Plus) the knc1 dvb-s card does have linux ci support http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/KNC1_TV-Station_DVB-S so the dvb-c (hdtv) will also support it
beside this they look similar http://www.kncone.de/d/produkte/zubehoer.htm http://www.satelco.de/htm/shop/easywatch_pci/details_easywatch_ci.php?s=Prod...
