I've got a pcHDTV card, a PVR-350, a PVR-250, two AVerMedia M179 cards, 
an AVerMedia Studio card and a Yuan MPG600GR at my disposal (as well as 
an MSI TV at nywhere -- cx88 card), though only four of the cards are in 
my active setup, across three machines... I'm back to working on trying 
to hack through some patches to get the MPG600GR (very nice little 
card) supported in ivtv, once I've finished getting my workstation back 
in action (lost a drive from my RAID array, decided to wipe it and 
reinstall RHEL4b1)...
