Cheap TV tuner card?
Since I just moved into my new apartment, I've upgraded from DSL to cable internet. I also have Adelphia's Cable TV, and I'd like to pipe that into my computer if I can (since I don't have a TV in my room). That said, I've got an X800 XL video card in there right now, so I don't need an All-In-Wonder type of card. Every search I do just gives me loads of shitty advertisement, not how TV tuners work. I'm assuming I'd have to get a splitter (cable TV to computer, cable internet to modem).. and a cheap TV tuner. Will there be conflicts with my current video card and it? Anyone know where I can get a nice tutorial type page or where I can buy a cheap cheap tuner? $50 or less, ideally...
