I wanted to watch TV on my PC but didnt want to shell out the loot for a new video card.

So i picked this up ATI TV TUNER

You can record on to your hard drive and even rewind and pause live tv.

I think this is what your looking for.

I have one of these, and its a real piece of crap. It bluescreens my computer continuously. Spend the extra money and get one that isn't an ATI POS.

You must have done some thing wrong i use it every day with no problems

Its cool though you can burn all your favorite shows on dvd's or just have a 1k gig HD like me [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

A friend of mine recently found a slickdeal on 250G HDs for like $80 B&M w/ no rebate. He bought 9. He now has a 2TB array that he uses to archive everything from his tivo automatically... it's so pointless [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I figure if I want a show on DVD, I'll download the whole season off newsgroups after the season has ended.

I just don't have the time to edit out commercials...
