Hi Folks......Help
I know my way around a PC, but I have no experience or knowledge of TV tuner cards and need to sort one for my Dad. So its important!
P4 2.8Ghz: 1.5Gb RAM: 8x AGP card with either 128 or 256Mb, think its an ATI card not sure on model (2nd user not seen the unit yet) will be using a new SATA 230Gb or 500Gb hard disk: SoundBlaster Audigi: Win XP Pro.
My Dad already has an external DigiBox that can be used to feed the card if it doeent have a digital decoder on board. Current solution is an external box via USB2 and its rubbish. I think this needs a PCI card based solution.
1 tuner will do but would like facility to record to HD.
Ideas/suggestions/observations
