[QUOTE="solas989, post: 379405, member: 87399"] I would choose the Hauppauge 2250 - two tuners than can do either Analog or Digital (good for cable since they take a long time to transition to digital). I have one and it is pretty good - not the best but good. If you have space, I would recommend individual cards because on the 2250, when I am recording one analog channel and watching a different analog channel, it does not look as good as when just watching 1 analog channel...could be because of the splitter. I would have liked to see two inputs...but oh well. I didnt have the room for two individual cards. I do not know how to control a set top box. I have my digital cable plugged into the tuner card directly. I get all my local channels in digital form and all my analog channels as well. This card is good because the analog decoding is done on the card (mpeg decoder), and not on the cpu. Then again, I could be very well missing your whole set of questions. Solas [/QUOTE]
