WinTV-HVR-2250 with HD DirecTV
I know this is a bit tangential to SageTV, but does anyone know if the Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2250 can be used to record high definition video from DirectTV?
I'm basically looking for something cheaper than the Hauppauge HD-PVR.

Nevermind, this card doesn't work. I found another thread explaining that S-Video can't do HD.

Your best bet is the Hauppauge HDPVR. It handles the h.264 signal directly from the sat receiver via component cables. And with an HD200 client, the picture is unbeatable on a good plasma or LCD.
