In principal these work with DishNet, but one might also work with DirectTV.
Twinhan/VisionPlus 1020/30 or Hauppage Nexus-S
Not sure if either dish or direc will send you a married card for it though...
some specs are here:

I have a VisionPlus 1030 on it's way and will be trying it with some providers, will report back some results, I am mainly interested in FTA though.

Subject: [mythtv-users] Direct TV Question - Version 2
Sorry - let me re-ask the question again.
I'm interested in trying to put together a good system with the mythtv program. Right now in my house, though, I've only got a Direct TV hookup. When I'm looking around, I have not been able to find a card that looks like it will take a Direct TV feed, though. From what I can see of normal video cards, they all work off of analog cable feeds rather than a digital cable feed or a Direct TV feed. Hopefully, though, it would be something that could also change channels, as well. The thing that throws me is the fact I'm thinking I would have to put my Direct TV card (my subscriber one) into the PC card to make it work?
So my questions are:
- Is there a video card that will work directly off the satellite?
- If not, is there some way to get the PC/Mythtv program to drive the satellite box?
Thanks,
Tim
