Hey I am trying to get a tv tuner that will work with MythTV (obviously Linux too) and I am getting very confused. I would like it to be a PCI card or PCIe x1 and to have ATSC tuning (preferably dual for recording in one place and watching in another).
Thanks,

Steven,

I've used the Fusion HDTV Gold PCI card with Myth, but I can't say it has the most sensitive tuner I've ever seen.

If I were picking something up today, I'd go for the "HD Home Run" box from http://www.silicondust.com/ It's got dual tuners in it's own wee box with ethernet out, so it will work with Myth, and VideoLAN, and mplayer, and ...

Best,

John
