I have a sony vaio laptop with a nvidia 64 meg ddr graphics card with a/v out. I am wondering if there is any way that i can get a tv tuner card through my card slot (or firewire). I want a tv tuner card that has preferably coaxial ends and s-video. (coaxial so that I can hook up bunny ears and watch some tv on the road). Is this possible or do i have to get a new graphics card or what??? i am using a sony 61 inch lcd hdtv and i know nothing about the capabilities of it. Any feedback on this would also be greatly appreciated!
Which card do you recommend, i would like to capture at mpeg-2 resolution. Also, could u give me suggestions for my tv?
Win TV PVR-350 - has Mpeg2 decoding and encoding Hardware. Some just have the software, so be aware. Its $199. here is a link but im sure you can get it cheaper somewhere else: http://www.hauppauge.com/html/products.htm
Hey oriphus, i heard that pctv deluxe was pretty good, it encoded at mpeg 2 layering and has svideo and rca and coaxial plus a remote and it also runs through usb 2.0...it didnt say what wintv ran through...what do you think?
