I am going to buy a DVB-S2 pci card (that supports full hd tv) and I can't decide between these:
PCI DVB-S2 TV
http://www.tbsdtv.com/english/product/PCIDVBS2.html
SkyStar HD 2
http://www.technisat.com/index4986.html ... ,en,76-215
and this (not sure if it is DVB-S2
DVBS DIGISTAR
http://www.geniatech.com/pa/digistar.htm
Any help appreciated
Thanks
Eddy

The Geniatech can't do DVB-S2
The others have their pros and cons each.
Like, the (chip) tuner of the Technisat is not shielded, but it comes with an extra DC power in port.
Try to find user postings on both tuners here and at dvbn(dot)happysat(dot)org or in similar places, hardware related.

I'll go for a normal dvb-s card
