Erm, sorry, but that's just not correct on multiple levels. The broadcast flag was shot down, and I'm not aware of any cards on the market today that actually have support to look for it, and certainly none of them do anything with said broadcast flag, since it isn't sent by anyone... There are at least a dozen HDTV cards on the market right now that work under Linux and will happily ignore the broadcast flag if it somehow gets resurrected.

This is also incorrect. They have Windows drivers too (CD image that ships w/the card linked below, not the directory on it containing Windows drivers). But they *are* the only ones who build their cards with Linux in mind, and worry about Linux support before Windows support.

Who's the manufacturer of this card? I'd like to know so I can avoid them...
