Would BTV support such a card? Would they be able to given the DRM around this?

Bump

If anyone at SnapStream is listening I sure hope that you are thinking about how SnapStream would work with this product as I would be willing to switch away from BTV if I could use this to tune my HDTV cable content.

Now if only Canadian cable companies would provide CableCards...

Re: ATI's OCUR Brings CableCard and HDTV Support to Windows Vista
cable card 1.0 actually really sucks.

CableCard 2.0 is what's good!

Why is that? I realize that the 1.0 spec doesn't allow for an EPG, VOD or PPV, but I can live with that, especially in an HTPC.

What else is wrong with CableCard1.0?

Presumably once CableCard2.0 is realease they will have a new version of the OCUR that will support it as well.

Re: ATI's OCUR Brings CableCard and HDTV Support to Windows Vista
yea, and max 1 feed per card.

many cable companies don't wanna deal with cable card 1.0... since it has so many limitations....

actually, u can search up an article from extremetech (i think) that explains how sucky is 1.0
