Hello.. First I would like to say thank you for a great forum. I have ready different reviews on here before, and it really is a great place. Will be donating what I can soon, and even though it won't be much I will have to do a little every now and then when I can... because the site deserves it !
Anyways onto my question...
I am just trying to save up enough money to build a new PC. While I was pricing parts I found out that there may be tuners out there that can act just like the DVR I rent from Time Warner cable. This really caught my eye because I have bought tv tuners before ( even a pchdtv5500 ) which I though would get me the channels I needed, but was very disappointed. Of course like everyone else I wanted to be able to watch, and record the digital channels!
So I stumbled accross this Ceton InfiniTV 4 Tuner card which I read can record up to 4 channels at a time, and all digital channels ?
I just wanted to make sure before I bought this card I would be able to record what I needed. Does this mean it is able to record everything my TWC DVR box would be able too ? Also Fios is just being made available around here.. so while I am asking.. will this work for all of Fios channels as well ? I buy different packages like movie channels.. I also purchase seasonal football, and basketball packages as well so I want to be clear that this will be able to record those channels without a problem as well correct ??
Going to read more in the great HTPC thread that is provided (much thanks). Also going to use this comp as a regular PC, but again just want to make sure this will be able to record the same channels as the provided HD/DVRs you rent from the cable company... Have wasted $ in the past with misleading tuner descriptions so have to ask. If there is anything else you think I should know please post ( I am aware I will need to purchase a CableCARD, and only thing I am worried aboiut there is getting the techs to install it right ? Probably a thread explaining how to get it done right though! )
Thanks again!
