Can a DVB-S PCI card can decode DVB-S2 signal

[harrydeo]

I have a twinhan DVB-S PCI card bought two years back. Will it be able to read DVB-S2 signals as well.

No harrydeo. Only a card wityh a DVB-S2 tuner will do. Some channels listed as HD can be opened if they are using MPEG4 QSPK, e.g. BBC HD on the Astra 2D satellite.

thanks for the reply. But I can confirm that my current tunner is capable of decoding MPEG4 streams (H.264).

What do you say ?

As I said, it will decode MPEG4, but not 8SPK (DVBS-2).
