Question by Druid Dude: Can anyone suggest a good TV Tuner that works with Satellite?
I’ll be getting Dish Network in a few days and I want to setup on of my PC’s to watch it, since my monitor is bigger than the TV in my bedroom. I’ve looked around but haven’t really found a CLEAR answer to what will work with satellite and receive DIGITAL satellite signals.
We’ll be getting a DishDVR 625 model receiver. It’s a dual tuner.
I just want something entry level, cheap, no need for every single feature known to man, but also a plus if it comes cheap.
I DON’T want links to lame “free satellite tv” crap so please save your time spammers.

As of now I don’t think there is anything thing you do to get Satellite onto your computer. I want to do the same thing, and there isn’t a lot of options. Mostly because of a couple of things. Mostly Digital Rights. Dish wants to make sure that the programs its sending out aren’t just copied over and over again. So there has to be some type of encryption to stop this. Next is HDMI, with HDTV signal it needs to go through an HDMI cables, and right now this are few and far for computers.
ATI came up with a cable box for home Cable users. (look up cable card). this had promise at least for home users and cable companies but it seems like ATI has kind of given up on the idea for now. (they probably have other things to worry about). I also know that DirecTV and Microsoft were working together to get Windows Media Center to work with DirecTV. But that probably won’t happen until years end.
I haven’t heard of any other option with Satellite. The only option I was always given was to get some HDTV over the air receiver. This allows you to record over the air programs.
