It worth qualifying that there are DVBS cards that work well *natively* within vMCE> like the floppyDTV/S2. >> I had one until recently. Or also the BlackGold tri hybrid 3450.
The only problem is the NDS encryption. Im currently not aware of what the status of NDS 'hackage' is, but it Im sure we would have heard about it if it had been done
The other important restriction is that DVBS cannot coexist with DVBT in vMCE, though the word is this may be rectified(finally) in Fiji. Who knows.
Unlike euro/US dvbs users, who have imminent vmce integration solutions, this is unlikely here, simply because foxtel/austar want to flog as many of their recorders as poss
The cap via analogue is the easiest, cheapest atm... It will be a shame though when there is a shift toward HD in payTV...an analogue cap wouldnt do it justice
