TV Tuner cards - which one?

[Paid_Peanuts]

Can anyone suggest a good TV tuner card capable of recording two channels at once?

 

The card is to be used with Vista. Thanks

I've just recently bought one.

Seemed quite good value.

Here is a link to it.

Sounds like what you'd need. :-)

It depends what you want to record with. I have a Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-T-500 which has excellent support under both Windows and Linux. I currently use it with Media Center on Vista and it works a treat.

Another vote for the Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-T-500 - works a treat in MediaPortal - this is driving my 'media centre' in the living room right now. Also excellent support in MythTV (http://parker1.co.uk/mythtv_about.php)

 

Obviously depends what you need to record - Analogue, DVB-T, DVB-C or DVB-S. the Hauppauge is for DVB-T (Freeview)

 

EDIT: I'm hearing and reading good things about the BlackGold 6 in 1 - which I'm now seriously considering for Freesat's launch later in the spring - free HD channels ftw.
