Help me to choose Tuner PCI Express Card
#1
Hi I am building a media pc out of an old unit i have it is an Intel Core I5, I have installed openelec. I would like to know what Tuner to choose, i have 1 Octo LNB satellite dish with a dual sat cable (previously used for (sky+).
I do have a VU+ box downstairs and can already use the vu+ pvr plugin to access recorded material but it wont let me stream live channel from it, (i think its something to do with the transcoding).
So I am thinking a tuner card will give me more flexibility, please help me pick.

Hi there,

There is a list of supported cards in the openelec wiki:

From my own experience I would advise against the "SkyStar 2 eXpress" in combination with openelec.
At least in OE version 2.99.1 this card/driver was causing quite a few stability problems and I ended up returning to my old "TT S2-1600" PCI card.
