There is a device called Media-Pointer MP-S2 DVB-S2 Twin Tuner matching 
your requirements. The linux driver has been started to my 
understanding, but is not yet working fully, from what i understand from 
http://www.vdr-portal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=87049 (german, some 
guys which have the card) - what you can read from where is that linux 
support for the card is at least planned and partially finished. The 
card seems to be pretty new. So "working on vdr" seems not yet been 
fullfilled. Maybe you can check on DVB mailinglist for more details.

Kind Regards

Steffen
