Hi Phil. Since 2002 I've used the Hauppage WinTV Nova-T. This is known
as a "budget" card as it doesn't have hardware mpeg2 decoding but it's
worked flawlessly for me. Back when I first got it I had to build
drivers from cvs against the kernel source etc etc but for the last
couple of years it's worked out of the box.
I don't recall my experience with Etch specifically but this card has
ran on various Debians and Debian-derivatives (Woody -> Ubuntu 8.08)
