Thanks Phil & Johan
I just spoke to Lakeside and that card is for the analog Foxtel service
only and it does not look like anything is around that can handle the
digital service. In the sales persons words "proably because Foxtel want
to lock you into their own PVR...." - I suspect he is right. So it is
back to recording the analog signal instead.
Cheers
Bruce
