[QUOTE="Timothy Cobb, post: 1102132, member: 122273"] I have been searching the forums to get this information but i have only found a lot of probably's and maybes and really am not confident what to do yet. i am about to get Directtv services and run the latest mediaportal on my mediacenter. i currently have a usb digital cable tuner and i am aware i will not be able to use that when i get service. my question is what do i need to buy to make this work. i have found the following: -colossus provides input, but some people on the net are saying HDCP makes it so most channels are not viewable -must have h24 box in order to control over ip (more reliable then ir) -some forums are saying that premium directv channels are resolution throttled on component outputs i am looking for someone that already has this setup, to tell me exactly what works, so i can order it. i do not know these things above, i simply read them, so feel free to correct the information if its not right. thanks in advance [/QUOTE]
