Recording TV on PC

[AND_YOU_ARE]

sure no problem, its a great card and worth the money. If you have a digital or analog camcorder, you can hook it up to the card and transfer your home movies to cd or dvd. Just one more good feature.

I tried those other sites that AND_YOU_ARE suggested, but they are also out of the model. It seems as though the Leadtek TV2000 Deluxe Ed. has been discountinued.

Will the Leadtek,TV2000 Expert Ed. be sufficent for me to create a tivo-esque system? Does it come with the correct software?

I have no idea, I'll have to look into it. Its too bad they discontinued the deluex edition.

I wouldn't recommend the ATI All in Wonder card. I had 2 of them go bad on me before I decide to go with Hauppauge. You go to a car lot to get a car, a video card company to get a video card, and a TV Tuner card Company to get a TV tuner card. ATI makes poor quality TV Tuners in my opinion. You can't beat Hauppauge in my opinion. Here is a good one here!

I don't think the the expert edition will work out. On leadtek's webpage, it says that the expert edition is:

WinFast TV2000 XP Expert is your best personal digital video recorder with video editing & authoring. It is the smartest and most effective way of turning your PC into a high definition TV and FM entertainment center.

Meanwhile, the deluxe edition says:

WinFast TV2000 XP Deluxe is your best personal digital video recorder with video editing & authoring

So should I just look into other brands?

Both of these sites have that card in stock

I would still suggest this card over others.

I just have on-board video and sound on my computer.
$200 Black Friday special eMachine.

My specs are 2.66 ghz Celeron D
and 512 mb of 3200 ram

Will that first LeadTek tuner work with this? The deluxe one... and since my audio and video are on-board will it lessen the quality? Thanks.

Also, I just got directTV installed today. I can still record from that right?

 

[AND_YOU_ARE]

Yeah you can record from anything on a coax cable. Antena or cable or digital

 

[dbernie41]

Do you know anything about if the quality will be effected because I just have onboard audio and video?
