Hi Folks,
I am just doing a concept design around using an Intel NUC vesa mounted onto the back of a TV.  It will likely be running windows 8.1 and be accessed via BT keyboard and mouse.  What I would like to do is either integrate a DVB-S/S2 tuner into the device that can be used with Windows Media centre  or have a small external device that can be attached via USB that can also be accessed via Media centre?

The NUC part of things is pretty simple, it is the DVB-S/S2 tuner that I am having trouble getting.  Ideally I would like to record Freeview content and watch later.  I do not require DVB-T support, but it is ok if it is there.

I would prefer not to use s/w that requires technical knowledge to set up or maintain on the principle that the candidate users are non-technical. Anything one can't do using the normal Freeview (DVB-T) menus found on TVs and Hard Drive recorders will be considered too technical (in other words, look at a guide, choose a program, set to record, change channel is ok).  Scanning for channels is considered technical but can be done with guidance, editing config files etc. is out of the question.

Network connectivity would likely be wifi+BT (perhaps USB), output to the TV HDMI (but may be d-sub), internal expansion is mini PCI.  Unit will have an SSD so that connection will be taken up.

I figure there are people that know a lot about HTPCs and some people are already familiar with the NUC units and know what they will do or not.   Basically I am just trying to conceptualise, work out technical feasibility and get some kind of build list.
