I currently have a skystar 2 for sateille on my pc and it works fine! however i was hoping to get the new irish channels from saorview and have the astra 28 channels also. can anyone recommend any affordable pci cards ? or even usb device will do..

    also could i record on my dvb-t and dvb-s at the same time ? :D

    thanks in advance

    This is the one I got from Amazon.. Half price at the moment (£45.99).. I just use it to connect to Freesat.. I don't bother recording etc.

    that's just a sat card though right? the op is looking for DVB-T as well..

    video if you have a look in the terrestrial forum there have already been loads of suggestions for USB DVB-T sticks that work fine, i've gotten chep ones from ebay that work well, there are some dual tuner cards that are recommended as well

    If you've a spare PCI-e slot you could get a Blackgold BTG3595,which has dual DVB-T and dual DVB-S2 tuners. Not the cheapest card( at around €150) but certainly one of,if not the best ,tuner's available in that price range.

    You could just get a cheap USB DVB-T dongle off ebay for around 5 euro or so?
