I am thinking of building my own HTPC and i need a few pointed. Ive decided that MCE 2005 is crap and media portal is definatley the way to go but now all i need to buy is a TV card.
im going to use this graphics card as the TV out - http://www.elsa.com/EN/Products/detail.asp?newsid=291

and i need a TV tuner that can do the following things.
Record TV
Pause TV and then catch up to real time tv (by skipping adverts)
some sort of directory so media portal gives me a tv guide (i dont know if this is related to the card or not)

and a few questions - is it possible with any cards to record and watch tv at the same time or do you need two cards? does media portal work well on wide screen tv's
