The current lowend Hauppauge bttv card can be had for $50.

I don't really see how a USB device could really compete with that.

That version was ~$140 over 2 years ago. It's probably cheaper now.

[Cooker] Usb Tv and Radio devices

Hi, can anyone tell me if USB Tv and Radio devices will work in linux, or are
they one of those Win things, that zap the cpu. Or is it they can be supported
they are just not at the moment.

If they are can someone send me a list of ones that work well, as i would like
to buy one and my local shop are just stupid. Also if USB Tv and radio stuff
don't work, then what are really good cards. I've got about £200 (think that is
about $300 but i don't know)
