Hello all, I'm interested in buying a PCI DVB-T card that is available cheaply in NZ and is supported by Gnu/Linux and MythTV. I only need one DVB-T tuner, as I have a dual-tuner already and our region only has three multiplexes (so three will do everything with multirec). The best bet that I have found so far is the Avermedia Avertv DVB-T Super 007 PCI Digital Terrestrial Television Receiver Card (M135D): http://www.alphacity.co.nz/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=261&products_id=61014 Looking on the wikis: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/AVerMedia_AVerTV_DVB-T_Super_007 ( http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/AVerTV_DVB-T_Super_007 has virtually nothing) "It is currently not supported under Linux. However, experimental support exists (see below for details)." Lower down, it says that "As of January 25, 2008: DVB-T works fine with modules from the Mercurial (hg) repository. This is a DVB-T card only." I have searched Google for any update on this card, but the best that I could find was this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1537985 I had thought that, if the card worked fine with modules in testing back in 2008, the drivers may have made it into the main releases by now. Have they? If I want to use this card with MythTV (on Mythbuntu), will I have to pull down the Mercurial repository and compile the drivers myself from there as set out in that ubuntuforums post?
