NPVR and various capture types

[hodak]

Hi there! I currently use NPVR for multi tuners basically to capture DVB-T off antenna and S-Video from my paid tv set top box. If i upgrade to a HDMI/HD capture card and DVB-T2 later : are these supported and even better is anyone using NPVR with DVB-T2 and/or HDMI capture cards?

I can answer part of your question, regarding HD capture devices. Hauppauge's Colossus and HD-PVR are supported by NPVR, according to Hauppauge. I don't know if there are other supported HD capture devices. Even if the Colossus is supported, HDMI capture is likely be a problem because of HDCP. Component video capture is usually the preferred choice for that reason.

Until recently I was using NPVR with a Blackgold BGT 3620 card for both DVB T and DVB T2. All worked without problem. At the moment I am not using NPVR but testing other software. The only reason for the possible change is compatibility with other systems. NPVR worked great with this card.
