I'm not sure whether KnoppMyth supports DVB cards yet without 
significant work.  Granted, it's been some time since I looked at 
KnoppMyth, so the functionality may well have been added.  I ended up 
moving to Gentoo for DVB and haven't really ever regretted it.

I've had endless problems with my Avermedia DVB-T - so many that I 
ditched it in favor of a Haupage Nova-T.  Yes, the Nova-T is more 
expensive, but it's been worth it from my perspective.  I did have this 
card working fine on the Mt Dandnenong transmitters before I moved to 
Selby and started taking advantage of the local transmitter... :)

I have heard others make positive mention of the VisionPlus card, but 
can't speak from experience on that one.
