[QUOTE="s*t*a*r*m*a*n, post: 36908, member: 175004"] Well i had a quick look around the links from this site and yahoo searched and i did not come up with much. [url]http://www.satonline.co.uk/pccards.htm[/url] this site was selling the skystar 1 and 2 and i have to say its a bit steep in price for what i was expecting. I thought the skystar (i keep calling it a skycard) was about 40 pounds or something but 60 is still not too bad for what you are getting i guess. i think the video out is way too expensive for me, i could buy a sat receiver for that so whats the point but i like the remote control idea thats cool and i already have a sat card its just not capable of emulating. i was wondering whether my cam slot could be used in the skycards? is it a universal cam slot? it looks similar with its serial cable and they are charging 75 quid for one when i already have it. But it seems good that you can record the programs onto your hard drive. is this a good quality result do you know and are there any dropped frames? I thought maybe i could just convert the files that i record over to maybe divx and play it in a divx dvd player but then i would be spending 100 pounds to do that so that does not make sense or i could make them mpeg and burn onto dvd but that is labour intensive and i cant be a***d :) so i will just have to accept that the skycard 2 is best all round. surely there must be a way to get the picture out another way rolf? i have a geforce 3 titanium 200 but there are graphic cards out that have tv outputs on them, so could the picture be outputed this way perhaps?
