TV tuner for a notebook/laptop
« on: October 13, 2003, 05:38:06 am »

Anyone know of a piece of kit that will allow me to hook up my VCR/Sky box to a laptop?

ATI TV Wonder USB Edition, or Hauppauge WinTV USB, will allow you hook up your analog TV signal to your computer via USB port. They give you decent (not great - compared with PCI TV cards) result.

Have any USB 2.0 or FireWire tuners been released yet? I've been waiting for a long time but haven't seen anything. USB 1 just doesn't have the bandwidth to support anything worth watching IMHO...
