Hey ;)

I have an EPIA II system (so virtually no CPU) with a PVR350 already
in it. I'd like to get some more tuners on the box but sadly it only
has one PCI slot and thats taken. 

I'm considering getting a Nova-T USB2 external box to get freeview
(UK DVB) broadcasts... I guess my question is, has anyone had any
experience with the USB models under linux + myth? Any idea how well
they work?

I understand the DVB signal is already encoded so the lack of CPU
shouldn't be an issue, and I can use the PVR350's output to decode
to TV.

Alternatively, if anyone knows of a PVR500 style card (single PCI
slot, multiple tuners) for DVB terrestrial signals that'd be great
too.

Thanks for any help,

Matt
