I'm new to this so please forgive me if i'm asking something that's been asked 1000 times before.
I currently have Sky Digital and was planning on installing a TV card to my pc, so i'd have a second tv/recording/ editing rig in my office. Pretty simple and straight forward to do, as i already have a second aerial running in here. For best results, which card should i buy?. I see a few cards come with analogue and digital recievers, so one of these would be a good idea and futureproof, IF i was ever to get rid of the Sky. For the moment, i'm stuck with satellite because analogue and terrestrial digital aren't available, due to my rural location.
BUT....while looking into TV cards, i noticed satellite PCI cards are also available. Now if i hooked one of these up to the existing sky digital dish, would I be able to recieve any viewable channels or would i just get a heap of encoded signals?. Again, which Sat card is the best to go for?.
Thanks
