Hello everyone. Iam wanting to buy a TV tuner card. I am looking for something that will give me great picture and something with a remote. Iam looking for this to record live TV. HD would be nice but not needed. Please list anything you have to offer me in help. Never used one before. SO many to pick from.

I never had any problems with hauppauge

There are cards now that have dual tuners (analogue and digital) but they seem like a waste right now. Get a good dual analogue card and you can record one show and watch another at the same time. If you have a dual tuner (one analogue, one digital) then you can only watch 1 source at the time currently as we do not have digital cable yet (2011 i think its when all will be digital)

New theater software for the ati 650 pro looks kick ass on my 53, even better when using a digital terminal and the svideo inputs.
