Ok so I want to get TV on my PC... I need a TV chip right?? Please can you guys recomend me some - i dont know much about this topic...

Edit: and also how does it get into your pc?? do you have to get someone to fit it for you?? or is there a downloadable version??

thanks

isn't a TV to PC converter the same thing?... if so... then have a look at these... I don't think they'd deliver to your area... but the desciptions might help you get a better idea of which ones are decent. http://www.globalsources.com/gsol/I/TV-to-PC-conv...00155206/19730.htm

There are different ways to get TV to your computer. One way is a USB-thingie which recives only digital signals usually, while there are cards can recive analog signals (I got one). The cards need to be fitted in the computer, it's not hard and mpst people can do it themselves. You also need a software. For the card version you also need a antenna, while the usb digital recivers usually don't need one.

EDIT: groessl35, I think those only capture signals from a TV, not display TV on the computer itself.

EDIT2: I use a Hauppauge PCI card.
