[QUOTE="BravoGolf, post: 16129"] Hi all, my sincere apologies if this is the wrong place for this thread, but I guess you rather knowledgeable people would be the best people to ask! Basically, I've just downloaded this excellent MediaPortal and it would be an excellent software if I could watch TV (imagine, no more watching crappy soaps with the missus!). I've no idea who to setup a TV card (is it PCMCIA based?), do I need to run a cable from the TV to the computer (laptop). How much are they and is there one you reccomend to me? My specs are as follows: Dell Inspiron 8500, 1.25 Gigs RAM, 64MB GeForce 4, P4 @ 2Ghz Cheers :) Edit: Thanks Mods for moving me rather than sticking me in the bad posts place! Another edit: I've noticed this one ([url]http://www.komplett.ie/k/ki.asp?sku=304755&view=detailed[/url]), would this work ok on my PCMCIA card without any lag on my laptop? [/QUOTE]
