Picture quality has nothing at all to do with which DVB-S or DVB-T card you are using as the DVB transport stream is written directly to disk unchanged. Picture quality will however be affected by the DVB software used, the MPEG2/MPEG4 CODEC, the graphics card, graphics card drivers & display device.
