I like to have sat card in my computer and i like to be able to use cardshare, have taken a look at Hauppauge Digital DEC-3000-s (http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/pages/pro...dec3000-s.html) but dont know if this is possible.
Dont like to buy a card that dont have this because dont like to buy another card that day i like to have it working.

Or is any card valid as long as it has got a slot for card?

Hi, and welcome

To be honest, I've never set one up for cardsharing, so I can't tell you definitively which satellite cards work and which don't. My guess would be that the common PCI cards would work, such as the Skystar 1 and 2 although it's as much to do with the function of the emulator/softcam.

Newcamd and GBOX i386 variants both work on the PC platform, but more than that I don't know. Maybe someone else here will have some extra information for you.
