[mythtv-users] Question about supporting digital cable TV

Hi folks,

I was wondering if anyone can recommend a suitable TV capture card (can 
be USB)...  I prefer it to support HD, but SD is ok too.  My setup at 
home is mythtv-0.21-193.fc8.x86_64, Comcast (central NJ), no unencrypted 
QAM, unproven OTA reception.  I am resigned to having to use an IR 
blaster to change channels.  And, I'll need to be able to use more than 
one device per computer (availability of usb ports or pci slots and 
power supply capacity being the only limiting factors).

I am not married to Fedora 8, and will entertain any suggestion (even, 
omg, a non-myth solution) but would prefer to stay on Fedora 8 for now.

Apologies in advance if this is not quite the right list.  I did check 
out the archives, but it's not searchable...

TIA,

Steve
