Scree In the pipe 5 by 5 join:2001-04-24 Mount Laurel, NJ	lol Digital cable customers already have similar to this, plus it is digital quality (well, almost, anyway), and of course a simple hookup to a computer can "store" them just fine! [text was edited by author 2003-10-27 13:10:34]

Seandhi Seeing From a New Level Premium join:2003-04-19 Humble, TX	reply to odeonkreel Just a question: How are you getting digital cable without a converter? I thought you had to have a digital cable box to convert the digital signal. -- Trusted Computing will destroy the information age! Educate yourself at »www.againsttcpa.com

Well I guess I didn't see where he had said that he hooked it up to a cable box, but let me read it again... said by Scree: Hmm. now that you mention it...I have a TV tuner card and digital cable hooked right into my pc at home...might have to start updating my collection with all the digital music channels I get and have hardly used ... Nope, still not there I guess we could assume, but we know what that will do. I asked the question because I would like to know if there is a way to receive digital signal without leasing another box from Time Warner, so if somebody could answer that question...

joebear29 join:2003-07-20 Alabaster, AL	Well, from reading other threads in the CATV forum, I was under the impression it was impossible to hook digital cable or satellite directly into one's computer without a box, hence the assumption that it went into the box first. But, as you suggest, it will be best to wait for the original poster to clarify the matter, as I have been mistaken in the past, and am a true believer in the theory that past performance is an indication of future results.

Seandhi Seeing From a New Level Premium join:2003-04-19 Humble, TX	I am pretty sure that you need a converter, but the poster said that he had it hooked 'right into' his computer. I thought that this meant straight from the wall to the tuner card, and his tuner card was acting as the converter. -- Trusted Computing will destroy the information age!

I thought you had to have a digital cable box to convert the digital signal. Uh, I assumed they hooked the cable to the box and the box to the PC. Am I wrong? That is correct. Cable goes to the box, then to the TV tuner card. That way I get all 200+ channels in digital format. -- Nothing to see here, move along.

Oshi @malvrn01.pa.comcast.	reply to Seandhi No experience with Digital Cable, but I assume it's coax going from the cable box to the PC. Simple solution, get a $2 coax Y splitter and hook both TV and PC on one box ...well, I guess you'd have to watch the same thing on the PC and TV at the same time, but it'd still work, right?

roamer1 sticking it out at you join:2001-03-24 Atlanta, GA	reply to joebear29 said by joebear29: Uh, I assumed they hooked the cable to the box and the box to the PC. Am I wrong? I have a DirecTV receiver dedicated to my computer, for both TV and music: Dish -> Multiswitch -> Receiver -> audio + S-video cables to TV tuner card (not actually used as a tuner, just a NTSC interface), and another set of audio cables to a switch box so I can listen to Music Choice without loading the WinTV app on my PC -SC -- No-Bull SE US Wireless Info: »www.sewireless.info/ Atlanta Apt/Condo Cable & Broadband Info: »www.atlaptcable.info/

Master5c8 join:2002-09-15 Urbana, IL	reply to Seandhi I've actually no experience using them, but I know you can buy digital cable pc tuner/converter cards. Hauppage makes one, check out their website »www.hauppauge.com , though the MSRP is apparently ~$200.
