hey,
anyone out there had any experience with TV tuner cards for desktops.
I am about to start a build on a barebones system (something small and funky like the Polo R that Groovy has :) - ever want to sell i’m your man 8) )

My setup’s headed towards this:

Windows Media Center running on a PC with wireless and bluetooth which I can stream music to - so attached to stereo, and I want to use it as a PVR (tivo etc) to record V to my hard drive. It’ll be attached to both my TV and home theatre projector so Ican watch DVD’s from it as well as streaming vid from it’s drive.

I’m setting off on a whole adventure here and actually have everything pretty well planned but now am at the stage of finding a TV tuner card that will do what I want - not Pay TV though as it’s too dear here and so it’ll just be the free to air stuff (and not digital because we are a few years away from having all the stations on digital).

So i basically want a card recommendation from anyone who’s been using one. I have been tooling around the net and there are reviews but just wondered if anyone’s got experinec.
cheers
