Country:  |  High Def Input Card I want my HTPC computer to accept High Definition Cable via my set top box through HDMI. This way I can record high definition tv and play High Definition Video on my TV through my media portal box. Thinking that there was no pci express card that would accept a HDMI input I came accross the Blackmagic Intensity HDMI Editing Card. It has a HDMI input and a HDMI output. Would something like this work in media portal. Does anyone have there media portal connected to a cable/sattellite box via a HDMI input card. Website of the card http://www2.promax.com/Blackmagic-De...2&category=287 |

Country:   | High Def Input Card Ok, this has me interested! I Would also love know if this would work with MP - currently stuck with only 1 unscrambled High Def channel in the UK and no way to pump HD ouput into a capture card (that I know of) Sorry I can't help with question but I might have a closed look at this... |

| This would be indeed very interesting! One thing is the ability to view hd tv from set-top box, but I am even more interested in gaming (PS3, Xbox360...) at HD res. thru MP. I am tired of changing channels on my scaler and want to use MP as scaler (mostly for Wii) with the ability to get MP messages on the screen when I'm gaming
