Hi

I am thinking about upgrading my motherboard in my mythtvcomputer. The motherboad I am looking at only have pci express(it is a mini-itx so I don't so many boards to choose from)

Does anyone know or can recommend any pci express or usb tuners for dvb-c? Because know when I have to change tuner card anyway(because I have a pci analog tuner card now) I would like to use the dvb-c which is carried by my cable provider

I do have another motherboard I could use with pci I could buy instead, but the quality of that brand shouldn't be too good if I understand the guys at the mythtv mailinglis right ;-)

Best Regards
Hasse H. Johansen

Terratec has the Cinergy HTC USB XS HD stick (support is upcoming) (analog TV, DVB-T, DVB-C, radio)
Pinnacle is about to release a DVB-C capable USB Stick within the next 2 months.

Thanks Markus. I somehow missed the hybrid tuners category when earlier when I looked at Terratecs site :-)

I looks like a very interesting tuner. I probably shouldn't ask, but what is the timeframe for the upcoming support?
