Dumdum needs help lol

Hello everyone. I would like to build a PC that could also be a media player. I would like some sort of peripheral card that attaches to the motherboard and acts as a HD TV signal receiver. Is this possible?

Thanks a bunch!

You need an HD TV tuner card:

There's a wide range of types and features. What I linked you is something that will let you use an antenna to pick up the local HD OTA channels, as well as just a cable from a wall directly into your PC... however cable companies these days may require you to use a cable card which would require a different tuner. I'm unsure about how the cable card part works so somebody else can help with that, and it depends what you need.

Hey thanks man! That's exactly what I am looking for, an HD tuner card for OTA local signals. Now that I know the category on Newegg I can browse the other cards and compare the features. Awesome, thanks! 😀
