WinNova Hauppage
You could have either PCI or USB version.

Work relatively well - open source drivers are easy to fix in case of problems.

Thank you for your answer.
I'm looking for this model on the Hauppauge website, but I only found
many models of the "WinTV Nova" type.
Could you help me please?

I'm using the Hauppauge Nova-T 500 Dual DVB-T.

Yes - this I've meant for PCI version - it is actually  USB card on
PCI device - thus  you should be aware you need motherboard that
handles USB2.0 - but I assume that you do no try to use this on some
ancient USB1.1 board.

Look with USB stick discussion from this week for dual USB version.

I don't think the Nova-T 500 Dual DVB-T is restricted only to 
motherboards with USB2.0
I believe the USB2.0 controllers are integrated on the PCI card and it 
should still work on a board with USB1.1

I'll second that with one proviso; it is essential to turn the LNA (Low 
Noise Amplifier) on. See this thread:

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/402992

A system shutdown and cold restart seems to be essential to reset the card.

Other than that, it's an excellent choice, imo.

I have also been using a Nova-T 500 PCI card for about 18 months and have 
been very happy with it. Works fine out of the box with recent Ubunutu 
versions (8.10 and up is my memory).

Do turn on the LNA, and if you're in Australia, enable the work around for 
ABC/SBS problems. See bottom of the wiki for details.

Look at this page:
http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVB-T_Devices
There you can see all the models working or almost working, it's your 
best startingpoint concerning hardware that works...

I've had a Nova-T 500 for the past 2 years.

Driver support was close to nil initially, but now it is very solid.

I'm very happy with it.

any card would do it. I'm using a program called getstream.
It demultiplexes a stream so you can record it with a program like mencoder.
