[QUOTE="gxtracker, post: 28480, member: 14004"] The reason some people get 2 PVR150's over a PVR500 is because you can get 2 PVR150MCE's for less than a single PVR500. Of course, you get the exact same functionality out of both options, but for those that can spare an extra PCI slot, the two 150's are the better bargan. Then again, you also have to split the coax to go to both cards. :wink: Going to digital cable simply means that you will have to feed your digital cable box into the TV tuner card. you will leave the TV card software on one of the video inputs, and simply use the set top box to change channels. it's very similar to just plugging in your cable box to your TV, instead you're using your HTPC.
