Hello,
I'd like to buy/create a new dual-DVB-s2 system, WAF compatible.
I thought about the DM-8000S http://www.dm8000.co.uk/ which is quiete expensive...
My other choice would be to create a new HTPC with something like an Asus P7H57D-V EVO http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=CadI5xNLwMYopFyJ or another H57 mainboard like http://geizhals.eu/?cat=mbp4_1156&asuch=H57 with an Intel "Clarkdale"-CPUs (i3-xxx or i5-6xx) such that I don't need a graphic card.
And of course a dual DVB-S2 card, like a Mystique TV Homepage - SaTiX, CaBiX, TeRiX, HDTV, S2, H.264 http://www.mystique-tv.de/ and a good HD and a good case.
Such a config would of course cost less than the DM-8000S and would be much more full of power (and allow to use VDR) any thought about it ?
Thank you :-)

I just hope the card is well supported under Linux: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Mystique_SaTiX-S2_Dual My Compro has similar chips like on other cards, however I can't get VERTI on some channels, or a lot of image break appears, where as my skystar 2 cards are also connected to the same 4x4 LNB and they work happily alongside the compro cards. If you are ready to take the plunge then please update us too :)
Thank you :-)
