I've sold a few Pixelview PlayTV Pro cards to Linux users. The BT878 chipset is
well supported under Linux, incl by CableCrypt, see

There are higher spec cards around, but this has done alright by me, esp for
the $$. I've used a Philips chipset card as well, the LifeView FlyVideo 3000
which also worked OK.
