Have you considered an EyeTV Netstream Sat + Sat Free? (€160 + €80)
I don't know if they would even be supported, but as there is no
HD Homerun DVB-S2 it was the only network attached tuner I found.

Its been discussed on the list before but seems like no one has tried,
yet. http://www.mythtv.org/pipermail/mythtv-users/2011-July/317603.html

PS: maybe an IEEE 1384 device might work, too. I don't know the specs
for the cable lengths.
