I know there are oodles of threads floating around on using your PC as a PVR and associated hardware, but none really deal with doing this with a satellite receiver so my specific questions haven't been answered by hours of research. I am a newbie when it comes to digital recording.
I have everything needed except the video in part. I was looking at TV tuner cards, but I really don't need the tuner part. I will probably be using the S-video port. Any recommendations? I was looking at either the ASUS card or the Leadtek card, but like I said, I really don't need a "tuner", I think.
I need to know how the sound gets recorded along with the video. Do I need to connect the sound outputs of the receiver to the TV tuner? Is this done in software while the video is recording?
I'm remodeling my computer room and my satellite receiver is in another room so I want to put in the appropiate wall jacks and run the cableing to my receiver and I'm at a loss to what I need to do.
