Smileyyakadoo Posted November 7, 2015 Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 For the longest time I always wanted to do this ever since Windows XP Media Center but never had any money for a capture card or some hd stream box, to record tv shows/movies to my pc. Any advice on what parts n such? really like to have the best and simple to use to guide throu tv channels, the works. by xmass I'll have some money. My server I use emby/kodi/wmc and osx if not osx, I can use my extra pc I have that has windows on it for the purpose of the card to be used in.

JohnFlower Posted November 7, 2015 Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 What you use depends on what you want to watch... I use a TBS6285 to watch DVB-T muxes. The TBS6285 also supports DVB-T2 and DVB-C. It doesn't support cable/satellite decryption cards, but TBS does have cards that has the option. I'd recommend TBS cards if you want to run them under Linux. I doubt many cards have drivers that support OSX. Windows... I'm sure Google will give you plenty of sub-optimal options.

ZeroPenguins Posted November 7, 2015 Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 Well you have another option of using a network TV tuner, though you can achieve the same results using a server with lots of TV tuners and streaming that over the network to any device. Though I think the first option is cheaper as you get a more AIO package rather than having to own a PC/laptop for a server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
