Can the Hauppage HD PVR be used to watch (not just record) TV on a pc (as shown here: http://www.hauppauge.com/site/products/data_hdpvr.html )? Like you can with a Hauppage WinTV USB HVR (as shown here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815116031 )? Because the HVR has a TV/cable input like a TV does, whereas the PVR only has component and S-Video. So, does the PVR have all the same capabilities of the HVR, and then some? Or can the PVR not display TV/cable on a pc like a TV tuner?
With a cable cord, and not with component output from a tv or cable box?
Basically is should. Of course, the HD-PVR unit will need connected to a TV receiver box for your source, and the software and IR blaster configured to change channels on the box.
The differences in the products, is that the PVR device is fundamentally an HD component video encoder, which encodes to an H.264 stream, where as the HVR receives the already digital TV from antenna or QAM cable, and perhaps encodes analog A/V or tuned channels.
I am trying to stream Netflix movies from my HP laptop (about 6 months old) to my 42" Samsung Plasma TV (about 3 years old). Hooked up a brand-new HDMI cable to both, and the video streams perfectly…..but there’s no audio. I tried looking into the TV and PC settings, and didn’t find any obvious place to enable the audio to stream. Has anyone had a similiar problem and were able to fix it within settings on the laptop or the TV?
Already eliminated possibility of faulty HDMI cable.
In my case, I am geting Pic from TV but sound from my HP-Laptop. Check Control Panel/ Sound/ Communication Setting. But I want sound from TV. Hope somebody will answer that for me.
I am majoring in journalism and I want to buy a PC with an analog/digital tv tuner to catch up on world events. I have a few questions, will I be able to watch cable tv shows like CNN, and Fox News and do I need any other additional equipment if ti is built in?
you can get all channels with a tv tuner as long as you have a cable/sat connection to the computer. you can also hook up digital boxes through them as well, there is just a little set up that goes with it to make sure it works.
I have a cable jack and TV in one corner of my room, and my PC on the other side. While the house is wireless, and I have no trouble with the internet, I do have a TV tuner on the PC, and would like to utilize it without having wires all over the place. Is there such thing as a wireless cable transmitter, and if so, where do I get one?
try sling.
Are there any other peripherals will be attached? As it is something new for me, I hope you can tell what website to get whole info about such a movies via pc cable tv ?

Ok so I’m got an extra pc with a tv tuner card installed. So I’ve got the coaxial cable line connected to the pc. The pc is running Windows 7 home premium x32. Now I don’t have a modem in this computer. So it doesn’t have internet access. I know that I’m supposed to use Windows Media Center to actual watch tv. But I tun into a snag. When I try to watch "live tv", I get a message stating that playready update was incomplete.
What can I do about this?
A new PC without a monitor?
Update playready completely.
so i have a computer that can run TV on it. i have a ethernet port about 5 feet away. can i connect the computer to the wall with ethernet cable and will i get cable tv? i have comcast that runs thru the house
thx guys
No you will eitehr need to use a SVGA out on the PC and Audi Out to Audio IN on the PC
Or you can also get something that connects PC to TV wirelessly.
(Just google it)
However you might be interested in SLIMBOX
Check it out. it may do what you want.
Since dual (or combo) tv tuner devices for PC have two tuners built in, does it mean I need to connect two coaxial cables (for cable tv) into the device or just one?
Sry, didn’t make it clear that I don’t actually have the product, I was just wondering.
