<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Im looking into building a media center box, and I
know these qeustions are asked all the time, but I have yet to see one with this
question.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have digital cable, and instead of having a cable
box, I was wondering if I could just get a WinTV-D card, acutally 2 of them so I
can record 2 channels at once. Would this card work? would this be
the only card I need? Do like they support mpeg and mpeg2 playback?
Could I just use the tv out on a geforce card?</FONT></DIV>
