Hello,
As you can see from my post count I am new here and was looking for information.
I live in the US in Boston to be specific. I have a subscription service with Globecast world TV to receive Asianet and some other ethnic channels.
Globecast has provided me with a dish, a set top box receiver and a subscription card. I insert the subscription card in a slot in the receiver to be able to watch these channels. There are some channels that are free and do not require this card.
I am in the process of building an HTPC to hopefully replace my Globecast box , DVD player and standard def TIVO.
What I am looking for is a TV tuner card that can accept the asianet subscription card and allow me to watch and record my channels and other free channels through my HTPC.
Could you reccomend such a card that I can buy here in the us ?
From my research I understand that I need to get
1) DVB PC Tuner
2) CAM Module
Please make reccomendations on both. I would prefer the card be PCIE rather than PCI.
Thanks in advance for you help and sorry for the newby question. I searched but could not find anything definitive.
Thanks
