Most cable card tuners are USB but some OEM's have been shipping internal as well.
I have an HVR2250 and get both QAM and analog with it with no trouble. I think Cox isn't always as giving as some other companies because we only get the local channels on QAM but even then, I don't get them all. I get the biggies but not all the PBS and independent local ones.
Your tuner doesn't accept a CableCard.

said by ajwees41 See Profile :

you will not get any digital cable channels without a cable card equipped pc. if you just want the unencrypted digital channels a qam tuner should work.
I think I want what you said in the end.
"if you just want the unencrypted digital channels a qam tuner should work."
I want to watch TV on my monitor using cox regular TV service whatever it is called from the wall outlet.
This is what I do in my bedroom Digital TV set without a box.

SO are you saying yes it will work as long as I get a QAM tuner.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22643109 Thu, 02 Jul 2009 01:33:56 EDT Re: [AZ] Computer TV Tuner Card Advise Needed http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22643091 cob_ : To add to what ajwees41 said, I haven't been keeping up on it, but I believe the only cablecard tuners are external USB, and are pretty strictly sold only as OEM with new PCs with Media Center. Shame the MPAA and the likes have such a stranglehold on new media technology; it's reminiscent of HDMI and HDCP requirements.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22643091 Thu, 02 Jul 2009 01:25:41 EDT Re: [AZ] Computer TV Tuner Card Advise Needed http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22642999 ajwees41 : you will not get any digital cable channels without a cable card equipped pc. if you just want the unencrypted digital channels a qam tuner should work.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22642999 Thu, 02 Jul 2009 00:44:50 EDT [AZ] Computer TV Tuner Card Advise Needed http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22642888 Iggy_AZ : I would like to watch Cox digital TV on my computer and was wondering what TV Tuner Card you are using with success.
