If you're in the market for a combo NTSC/ATSC PCI TV tuner, you might want to check out Vista View's Saber DA-1IN1-I. That's a lot of abbreviations. Here's what they mean.This card fits in your desktop, records high definition television from over the air (antenna) sources or your standard analog cable/antenna signals.
The DA-1IN1-I has two separate tuners, meaning you can record 1 analog and 1 digital program at the same time, or record one show while watching another. It supports HDTV resolutions up to and including 1080p, and supports hardware encoding for analog video.
It should work with any modern PC running Windows XP or Vista, although I wouldn't be surprised if it worked with Linux as well.
$99 gets you the PCI card, an audio cable, an S-Video to composite adapter, and the usual instructions and driver CDs. No antenna or remote control included.
