Since they recently changed to Conax, I'm not able to use my card anymore. But I
used  to  use VDR, worked like charm. Using a CAM, Myth would probably be mature
enough to try out now.

And  no,  you  don't  need  a DVB-C card for 2700SEK, that would be wasting like
1700SEK..  Those  cards  have  tv-outs  that will be useless with something like
Myth. Get a budget card, they're at about 1000SEK.

The drivers from linuxtv.org are working well.

And  if you're using a Conax module you shouldn't have any problems with the new
system  (allthough  it's  really Conax with Viaccess tunneling or something like
that, but I'm sure it's possible to get running somehow).



DS> I am also assuming that i will be able to output what i get from the dvb-c
DS> card on a pvr-350 tv-out is this correct ?

Probably..
