ATI Digital Cable Tuners - $25 each

#1

UPDATE: These have been sold. THANK YOU!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Anyone interested in three ATI Cable Tuners? I have three of them I do not need anymore. These tuners worked great for 3 years, but I moved to a Verizon FiOS area and they are not compatible(had to upgrade to the Ceton). Originally paid $250 each (ouch)

$25 each
or $60 for all three

I still have all accessories and even the original box (for two of them). Located in Dallas area.

Thanks!

I Pulled up the specs but not many photos for it. I see it supports cable card NTSC/ATSC/Clear Qam. Do you know the output of the card. This is basically what my internal is now, but I am limited to 1080i because it is an older card. ATi didn't list the output specs for these.

I might be interested.

There is no such thing as the output of the card. OCURs just pass the digital bitstream through - it is whatever your cable provider sends. 1080p is not a typical broadcast format (either 720p or 1080i is used) so it is unlikely you will get any 1080p from cable.
If you have an internal ATI OCUR already, this is the exact same thing - it is literally the same card with a case around it.

I had a few of these before I upgraded to InifniTV4. Renting multiple M-cards was not fun, but it was the only one available. I think I paid $320 for each of them when they came out. So, $430 for Ceton was a bargain. :-)

The internal just sits in the PCI slot, without any connections to it, and connects to a USB header on the motherboard, and gets power through a floppy drive connector.

Can Ceton write firmware for these to support Symulcript? :-) AMD/ATI really abandoned these.
