I don't know any Linux-DVB-software with software-based MPEG-decoding. All
proggies demand for the full-featured cards.

You could use VDR with VdrAdmin for easy recording and handling EPG-data and
MPlayer to playback the recordings.

For live watching you can follow the streaming plugin-development. I
currenly test it. Streaming a fixed channel by multicast and replaying it
with MPlayer (should also work with M$ MediaPlayer and Elecard-Plugin) seems
to work quite stable, but streaming the current channel (you can switch
channels with VdrAdmin) often breaks playback when switching the channel.
