I think the X1 PVR cards are coming in ?????? by johns
Google this .... Provideo PV-986 It is interesting. First it is pci-e X1. Then it is a hybrid both digital and analog TV receiver with S-video. I don't know anything more than that, and can't find a retailer at all. I imagine it could be a real pain regards PVR software, but I see the linux...
