I'm really excited to get this implemented in my house. I've been doing some research over the last 2 weeks and I must admit I'm still quite confused.

One of the hardest things I'm finding is a TV Tuner card (am currently looking at WinTV-HVR-1600). What I want from what I've read is a dual digital tuner so I can watch and record at the same time. Now my TV goes through comcast do I feed the line to the box and then split the line from the box to the 2 ends on the TV card?

Also has anyone used the HP slimline PC's? I've heard from a few people that they are really quiet which is exactly what I'm looking for (ie. s3000). My spare old computer is rather noisy.

After I get this setup I intend to run media portal on this PC to stream to all other PC's and eventually other TV's.

Thanks for any help/insight on this.
