I'm about to go out and buy a digital TV card (for use in Australia) and was going to get the Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-1110. Searching the web I am struggling to find this product in Australia.
I can get the Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-1110MCE model, but have no idea what the difference between the two is..... other than the MCE model being OEM.
Will the MCE version work or should I keep searching for the non-MCE version?

Hi Steve,
I have no direct experience with this card... so I cant say for sure what difference is between the two versions. Youe can look here for more linux specific info on the card though
http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-1110Looks like the current 2.6.20-15 kernel has support for it though... you may have to get the firmware though as that does not seem to be in
/lib/firmware/2.6.20-15-generic/
If your just looking for DVB-T though you could also look at the Avermedia 771 PCI card (that needs a module modprobed into place) or the Hauppauge T500 (twin tuner card... you'll need the firmware for this card too... which I can send to you if you need it).
Another option would be the Avermedia A800 usb... but this is an external usb device. This is plug n play though so no config at all.
Hope the above is of some help.
