Obviously that's a tight budget, but I'm sure there are good products out there you guys can still recommend. I read the past threads on USB tuners, but they were specfic for other ppl's needs (HDTV, etc)

in order of preference:
1- image quality
2- resolution (1280x800 or more)
3- remote control
4- how fast it changes channels

because i don't really need it to capture video, i think this helps keep the costs down. Of course if there's already a good one out there that also captures video, hey i'll take it.

For example, I saw KWorld PVR-USB2, for like $66 in newegg. Is this thing any good?? I can sacrifice a few things, if there's something else out there with AWESOME image quality, but only has 1024x768 resolution...things like that. THANKS!!!

I'd personally stick with something from Hauppauge or something.

either that, or upgrade video card to ( depending on what you have a AIW 9700 pro or a AIW 9800 Pro which has built in PVR feature and remote.
