Default Need help: Decent Cheap PCI PVR card?

Hi, I have 2 tv tuners

an AverMedia AverTV and a Kworld PCI capture card ( this is just a capture card)

Both are unable to create a net graphs, I am unsure why but I just cant get it working


Can anyone out there recommend a cheaper card that has decent quality that works with scheduled recordings?

I appreciate it so much

thanks!!
