This is a combined question because I am not only unclear if the following hardware will run with TVHeadend 3.4 but also on unRAID 5rc11 (Linux unRAID 3.0.33), which is basically Slackware. Does the unRAID and TVHeadEnd need kernel support to use the tuner cards I have chosen (below)?
I am going to buy TV tuner PCIe (!!) cards to have 2 DVB-C tuners. If a card has only 1 tuner I will buy two of them. An onboard CI-Card slot is not necessary because I will have an external USB solution for that anyway.
If you have experience with any of the following boards it would be great if you would share it (sorry the links are for Amazon Germany):
