Hello all,
I want to apologize for the newbie question in advance, but I just want to ensure that I have everything straight in my head. I am running the latest version of pvrx2 on a P4, 3ghz machine with 1gb of memory. I currently am running a Hauppage 150 tuner card. I am wanting to add another hybrid or digital card to my setup. (I would prefer a hybrid that could record both analog and digital at the same time.) I have standard cable service w/HD serv.
My question is this, I would like to get a digital tuner that could receive HD channels and record them without having to get a cable box. I currently have a Pioneer 50" plasma that receives HD channels via a cable card. (This setup does not require a cable box.)
Is there a digital/hybrid card on the market that will allow me to receive HD channels via my cable service provider, not over-the-air, and without having to purchase a cable box?
Thanks in advance.
