Recommend a USB DVB-T for me

Hi all.

 

I'm in the market for a new USB Freeview box/stick to replace my Freecom DVB-T.

 

Background

I have a rooftop aerial with a 4-way mast-mounted splitter/amplifier. I have 3 cables conencted to it - two of them go to set-top boxes (a Topfield 5800 and a Thomson PVR) and the other goes to my PC.

 

The set-top boxes can receive all channels, but I can't get Film4/UKTV History with the Freeview stick. I have tried a STB on the aerial feed to my PC and it works fine, so I have decided the Freecom stick needs replacing.

 

Requirements

- dual tuners

- CAM slot / CI module (so I can subscribe to Setanta)

- USB

 

Can anyone recommend a suitable box/stick that works well with DVBViewer?

 

Thanks,

 

R.

Thanks, but I can't find anywhere to buy the FireDTV in the UK.

 

Do you know anywhere? Or do you have any other suggestions?

 

What about the hauppage WinTV-CI with a WinTV-Nova-TD? Are either of those suppoered by DVBViewer?

 

Thanks,
