Has anyone tried any of the other HDTV cards?
I was looking at the http://www.hauppauge.com/pages/products/
data_hvr1600.html
It has both digital and analog tuners. Combined with my PVR500 that
would give me four tuners (1 digital, 3 analog) in two PCI slots.
I've been happy with hauppauge products, very unhappy with pinnacle
products, and never used a pcHDTV.
Hauppauge cards seem to have fairly good linux support.

I had a pcHDTV (older model and sold it). Since then I have built a
new box and have been using the FusionHDTV 3 (I think the lastest
version is the 5). My cards were between $79 and $99 each. They have
been working fine, but if I was building a new system now I would go
with the HDHomeRun ( http://www.9thtee.com/hdhomerun.htm ). It is a
dual tuner network device that is $170. It works with MythTV, VLC,
Sage, etc. I was even able to get it working with MythTV backend
running on my MacBook Pro.
