Hi, first time here.
Not sure if this is the right place, but here goes....
A non-techie, I am researching a home media solution. So far am looking at Synology NAS DS412+ with Acer Aspire Revo 3700 as the HTPC, running everything off XMBC.
One of the many things I want to achieve is to get and record my Freeview through the system. Hence my appearance here....
My question is - if my (LG32LD550) TV already has a Freeview tuner ( I am 99% sure it does), can NextPVR pick this up even though it is not connected to the Revo - or do I need to get a USB / card freeview tuner (from Hauppage or similar)?
I ask in the interest of saving money for all the purchases I am having to make (NAS housing, disks, HTPC etc etc...)
Very grateful for a clear steer on this!
