<DIV><BR></DIV>DVB-S works fine in North America -- no problems
whatsoever.<BR><BR>If you want digital cable, you will need to go with a card
that uses ATSC. I don't think VDR has a plugin working for it but I do
know that MythTV does. Of course, that would only work with unscambled
ATSC digital signals -- which many cable companies provide for their regular
subscription channels.<BR><BR>N<BR><BR>On Wed, 2006-03-15 at 11:06 -0700,
