[mythtv-users] TV tuner card recommendations?

[Jim Shank]

You are correct on both accounts, the 150MCE comes with an external USB IR
Receiver/Blaster. It also has traditional composite-in jacks (Yellow, Red,
White). Sorry for the confusion.

I built a new MythTV system about a month ago and used the 150MCE. I picked
it up from CompUSA for $65 with a rebate. So far I love the card. It was
very easy to setup and works right out of the box. I like the MCE version
because I needed an IR receiver/blaster and I like the component-in jacks
for copying stuff off of my TiVo when I want to store it long-term. Good
luck with everything.

To clarify for others, the Retail box version of the 150MCE comes with a
separate USB (pretty sure it is usb) IR receiver/blaster, whereas the normal
150 has its smaller sensor/transmitter plug directly into the card.

No consumer-level TV tuner card has component-in jacks.  Perhaps you meant a
composite-in jack?  Or were referring to the RCA audio line-in jacks?
