There was just a discussion on tv tuner cards on slashdot a couple days
ago, this reminds me I wanted to go back to it when there were more comments http://ask.slashdot.org/askslashdot/...7/205257.shtml the discussion will tend to be a bit more linux-oriented but even if you never have plans of running linux, if linux support is available more likely windows drivers will still be available years down the road. Or whatever OS is hot 10 years from now. ~Jeremy __________________________________________________ __________________ Please remove your windows partition when replying by email |

TV Tuner Card
I went to newegg.com and saw a tv tuner card there that I was
interested in. Unfortunately they were sold out. I had that page saved and I had signed up to be informed when it came in and was available for purchase. I did not write down any information about this tv tuner card. I had it saved in my favorites and all of a sudden when I go to that page it is blank. Does this mean they no longer sell it? The features I was most interested in for this particular card was: Turn pc on and off by remote control FM Tuner 16 Channel Preview Does anyone know of another tv tuner card(PCI, NOT USB) that can do the same? |

Well my old Pinancle card had those features except maybe the turn the PC off feature. However there are remote programs that you can assign functions to keys for the pinnacle remote so maybe its possible, A lot of cards have remotes , FM tuners and the ability to cover your PC screen with a wall of mini screens of as many channels that will fit, |

I have found the card. You can find it at this url: http://www.pcchipsusa.com/prod-tvtunercard.asp It is hard to find to purchase however. I did find it on ebay and it is on its way now. The reviews that I found for it were exceptionally well, so I feel comfortable purchasing this remote. |
