I've been wondering about why there are no tuner cards with DVI or HDMI
inputs for this reason.  It seems it wouldn't be too different than taking
the mpeg stream from a co-ax cable.  Is there any major technical reason
preventing the production of such cards?  I know that nvidia has some cards
with VIVO, but I don't know if there is linux support for them nor if they
work for all of the card's ports or just the s-video port.
