got some such fish on the hook, notoriously buying some latest Medion/Aldi/Tevion/Creatix stuff. That sort was not exactly wanted, but it has some big NXP on it and else the fuzzy picture was for nothing good enough ;)

Looks like Manu has a lot already and also Sergey.

But still seems to be a long road.

BTW, there are lots of complaints about overheating for that card within short time on the original machine, what I don't see on my old AMD Quad machine.

DVB-T looks ok on vista, did not test any analog stuff yet, but DVB-S is very poor. Not even 50% of the usual services. S2 not tested, need to move the dish.

Looks like we might import a DVB-S bug from initial m$ drivers again?
