[QUOTE="wetzel402, post: 718465, member: 111042"] Hi everyone, I am currently building my first HTPC :) and I really could use some help picking the right tuner card. :wtf: My system uses PCI with Windows XP. I already have an RF remote on order so I don't need one with the card. I am looking to tune over the air (OTA) antenna channels (I receive over 20) and record. I may want to upgrade to basic cable in the future and it would be beneficial if the card could tune and record cable as well. I am currently looking at the Hauppauge Win-TV-HVR-1600 as an option. Will this work well with all features of Media Portal? Can it tune OTA TV as well as cable? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! :thx: [/QUOTE]
