Are there any TV tuner cards which are good for watching "Digital TV" on your monitor? I have checked a few cards like TV Excel, Fly Video, but they only come with analogue TV tuners.
Many thanks in advance.

Are you talking about HDTV? If so I know nothing about it.

Or do you mean digital cable? Digital cable is just a package from your cable company that compresses more channels into your cable line so you can watch more channels and it costs them less money (thus they actually make a lot of money off of you if you use this since it barely costs them anything except for the new hardware they had to buy to send more channels on more frequencies). There is no such thing as a pure digital TV capture card, just stereo.

Normal cable operates at 30Mhz. Digital cable is supposed to use a higher frequency on the same co-axial lines to deliver content. Thus, the cable company endures no extra expenses for maintaining it. For someone who hates AT&T's cable service (or lack of it) I would be the LAST person to ever sign up for digital cable.

Cakecake - thanks for your reply mate.
Ok, let me put it this way - If the country you live in has free-to-air HDTV transmission, is there any PCI cards ( TV tuner or capture..etc..)I can use to watch that free-to-air HDTV transmission on my PC?

Like I said, I know nothing about HDTV... can anyone else help?

Chech out <A HREF="http://www.avsforum.com" target="_new">http://www.avsforum.com</A>. They have a forum on home theater PCs. There you can learn alot about DTV and HDTV and which cards are good for the PC.

Hauppauge has a tuner card that supports both analog and digital signals, but you will pay extra for it. I guess not many people know that the FCC mandated ALL analog signals will be dropped in a few years.
