BDA Drivers And TV Software

[malcontent]

Having just installed the BDA drivers for the Freecom DVB-T USB stick, I'm looking round for a good program for viewing TV. Reason being, Freecom seems to write some of the worst software on the planet.

Can anyone suggest some good programs for this. Preferably with media center functionality. I initially liked one called mediaportal, but this opinion changed when I found that it was flaky as hell (crashed when scanning channels)

http://www.gbpvr.com/ - worth a look, though I gather it may need some tinkering to add certain card support.

There are some clever add-ins around too
http://www.tv-plugin.com/ - for winamp

http://www.dsp-worx.de/index.php?n=11 - for most directshow capable players, including WMP (may be dependent on decoders installed by the software which "belongs" to the card). Setup can be a bit fiddly and does NOT work with the current "Mediaplayer Classic" as it changed the way it opens a filter.

Thanks for the links (although until I get software to work, I've brought my old digibox out of retirement, it seems to be the most reliable thing I've tried so far)
