<div>Milos - people are assuming you are in the US - I'm guessing you are the Czech republic given your email address. It might help if you say what HD signal you want to capture. Here in the UK - to capture the BBC HD transmission you 'just' need a DVB-S card - and it tunes the same as any regular channel (decoding and playing back the captured
H.264 file in realtime is another story all together). I believe much of the rest of Europe (and Sky HD) use DVB-S2. The SkystarHD is a S2 card which is what I'm assuming you are referring to. If you have a Linux driver for it - it's plug and play with Myth. If not - don't know what to do. When I looked at DVB-S2 a few months ago, Linux support was still pretty scarce. I'd take a look at
