I'd like to upgrade to the Sharp 1080p 32" LCD with my Mac Mini and be able to watch HD programming from a DirecTV box while working on the computer. The Sharp does not have PIP.


Does anyone know how I can do this?


Thanks

It's not possible. You would need to have D* integrated into the PC to be able to do it, and there is currently no product out to do that. That will change later this year though, D* and MS are getting together on a box which will integrate D* into Windows Media Center.


I can't envision any way of ever being able to do it on a Mac Mini.


And note that I am NOT criticizing Mac Mini's, or whatever in any way, I'm just saying that the odds of you ever being able to do what you want to do on that computer are very small.

Thanks for the reply.


So it is either work on the computer OR watch TV?


Bummer if so
