I am looking to buy a TV Tuner to simply record some TV shows and burn to a
DVD.

Any know of a good product they would recommend?

Thanks.
 
Ryan,

I have one of these cards:
http://www.chiefvalue.com/app/productdetails.asp?submit=search&item=14-122-221
running on a Athlon64 machine with a 128MB nVidia chipset and XP Pro.

It works well for TV recording and the WinFast software is pretty decent. In
fact, I use the Windows Media file compression option and it still gives
good playback. This compression allows me to record 3-4 hour football games
in less than 1GB of HDD space.

Newegg.com had this card awhile ago for $30 with a $20 rebate but it doesn't
appear to be available anymore at Newegg. I think ChiefValue is a subsidiary
of Newegg.
