[ILUG] PAL tuner card?

[ILUG] PAL tuner card?

Matt Birkholz matt at birkholz.chandler.az.us

Can anyone recommend a TV card for Linux that has a PAL tuner?  And an
Irish supplier?  I would like to use MythTV on Debian to capture NTL cable
(analog AND digital).  (I keep missing _Star_Trek:_Enterprise_. :-)

I am on temporary assignment here in Ireland (Lucan), and I have a couple
NTSC tuners.  I was hoping they could be re-parameterized to capture PAL
even though it says "NTSC" on the card.  On the NTL analog cable, my ATI TV
Wonder VE gets autodetected as a PAL* tuner.  It locks on but gets no
color.  Is there a way to make an NTSC-only card capture PAL in color?  If
I try to use one of my NTSC cards on the Composite from the digital set top
box, will I be wasting my time?
