<br>
</div>Scanning for free-to-air (FTA) satellite channels is supported within<br>
mythtvsetup, and there is currently a now/next EPG available for DVB-S<br>
channels. The 'proper' FreeSat EPG will hopefully be supported in the<br>
future. You could use the tv_grab_uk_rt XMLTV grabber to get 14 days'<br>
weorth of listings for the key FreeSat channels, but there are many<br>
more viewable channels available (i.e. besides those included under<br>
the FreeSat banner) than the uk_rt grabber currently has support for.<br>
<br>
For a list of currently supported DVB-S devices, see<br>
<a href="http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVB-S_Devices" target="_blank">http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVB-S_Devices</a>. I'm using a Hauppauge<br>
Nova-S Plus PCI card for testing, and it's working well.<br>
