Of course as always. But we don't live in a perfect world ;) I'm not too happy about the idea to start testing different DVB card/CI combos on my own expense to find one that works. Especially nowadays when finding non-USB/Linux supported tuners for cable reception is next to impossible. -- Heikki M _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
