According to the blurb on the site
http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/site/products/data_hvr4000.html
Notes:

* For Digital Terrestrial reception, a high gain aerial is recommended. The WinTV-HVR-4000 uses a rooftop aerial for DVB-T reception in the same way that most people currently receive their analogue television programmes. Some viewers will need to replace their aerials to receive digital transmissions if the installation is old or in poor condition. Digital Terrestrial coverage is improving all the time as digital terrestrial television transmitters are continuously being updated. However it may take some time for coverage to reach particular areas of the country. To check if you receive a digital transmission in your area, input your Post Code at: http://www.digitaluk.co.uk/
* DVB-S/DVB-S2/DVB-T Radio is not DAB Radio.
* For Digital Satellite reception, your satellite dish must be aimed at a satellite which is transmitting fre-to-air Sat TV. For example, Astra and Eutelsat provide free-to-air satellite channels.
* Some HD Digital Satellite channels are available on Astra and Eutelsat (via DVB-S2 transmission).
* To use the WinTV-HVR-4000 for TV with the Windows XP Media Center application (DVB-T/Analogue, DVB-S will also work but will require a patch from our website) a Media Center certified DVD or MPEG-2 software decoder is required. If you are building a Media Center PC, refer Microsoft's web site for a list of Media Center certified DVD decoders. The Windows Media Center application is included with Windows XP Media Center, Windows Vista Ultimate and Windows Vista Home Premium editions only. The enclosed remote control is not MCE certified and does not replace Media Center remote control.

So yes FTA Freesat HD channels would be ok with this.
 
Do you get the ability to record programs (like you do from the SKY EPG) that will alter the record time according to schedule changes? My missus clogs up our sky hd box with the usual soaps on (ITV & BBC) because any changes in schedule are accounted for ... and I get in the neck when the occasional one is err, .. 'cancelled' :D
 
Hi

I`m currently trying to find a online retailer based in the uk that has the Hauppauge WinTV HVR4000 - PCI Quad Tuner Card for sale, but it seems as though this product is very hard to find now, and all the online shops ive come across always says out of stock, and no sign of when it`will be back in stock again. I was wondering if anyone here knows of a online uk web store retalier that definitely sells this card and is definitely in stock? If you can help, you can contact me by using OcUK trust option.

Thank You!
