So I'm looking to buy a USB TV Tuner for my laptop, but I don't know jack about these things so I'd figure I'd ask everyone.
There's 2 models I've been referred to.
DVico Fusion HDTV5 USB

and the Hauppauge WinTV PVR USB
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/de...763023?v=glance&s=electronics&n=507846
I'm leaning more to the Fusion HDTV5 because it seems like it can decode HDTV , but when I emailed digitalconnections(the site selling it) they said that you can only receive hdtv from "Over the Air" antennas or unencrypted QAM...
Now I have no idea what that means in plain english. What I do have is basic cable from my local cable provider, and i know that some of the shows on some channels like ABC, NBC show in HDTV now and I want to be able to watch it in that format using the Fusion tuner.
Thanks in advance for any help!
