Oh I am not alone trying to tune to these kinds of HD channels: here 
they are all on one transponder which is QPSK, DVB-S2 but at 45Msym/s! I 
got a tip on an upcoming dvb-s2 card from TBS, the 6921 or 8921 which 
supposedly can tune to transponder with such high rates. IIRC it should 
be released at beginning of december, but I must admit I'll wait and see 
abit that some more adventurous people try it to see if the combination 
hardware/drivers is able to live up to their claims.
