How to Add a USB TV Tuner to your PC
If you want to watch TV show or live oversea channels easily on your personal computer, a USB TV tuner can realize your wish. You might say that you can watch streaming videos online or view television shows or movies that you've downloaded in the office website
However, watching a cable or satellite programming on PC is a total different experience in your life. A TV tuner card or USB TV box will also allow you to use your computer like a digital video recorder (DVR) and output video to your television. Now let' us show you how to add a USB TV tuner to your PC.
Step 1
Firstly, make sure to turn off your computer and disconnect all peripherals and wires. Then Open your computer case carefully. With a screwdriver, you might have to loosen or remover some screws at the rear of the computer case, but if your TV tuner is USB slot, you may need not do this, Consult your computer documentation if you're not sure.
Step2:
Ground yourself to the compute chassis with an ESD wrist strap that clips to a bare metal spot inside the computer case. Remove the cover plate from the rear of the computer case at the appropriate slot for your TV tuner card. The expansion slot you use will depend on whether your TV tuner card is a PCI card or a PCI-Express card. but if you bought a USB interface TV tuner, such as TBS qbox3, you can also connect it to your laptop directly.
Step3
Press the TV tuner card down into the appropriate expansion slot and fasten the back of the card to the computer case with a screw. Close the computer case, reconnect all wires and turn the computer on. Install the TV tuner software provided with the TV tuner card.
Step4
Once PC TV box is set up on your computer, you should put in the Drivers install disc in and download the proper kernel which comes with the TV tuner. After installing the drivers and software , you can begin to add your favorites channels on your PC.

Know a lot about Security Systems? Please read & tell me which you think is best for recording?
I basically need a "nanny cam" to record (motion activated) activity in my bedroom, when I'm not home. Things are getting stolen. It has to be not noticeable. I've been looking into it. Is it better (as far the recording of the action) to get a USB DVR (just plugs into PC), a portable DVR or a DVR PCI Card? I can't have one that plugs into my VCR for 1) I record shows while I'm @ work & 2), it would be noticeable if my VCR cut on when someone walked into the room. There are so many options. Is it better to get it separate or something that already has everything needed? I need a pinhole or covert camera that motion activated & can record on something other than my VCR. Color & audio would be a plus, but not necessary. I've reasearched till my head hurts, but I'm still no expert & want to make the right decision. Thanks!
I don't envy our predicament. I know the market is full of info and alot of it is biased crap.
In your situation, I would think this is a short term solution. The cheapest way is to hook a pinhole camera up to a VCR set to slow record. You could probably get up to 8 hours on a tape if it is set to slow speed (Typically this would be long enough to catch the a$$h0le.) Another inexpensive method would be a digital camcorder with an AV input.
As far as higher end solutions, I would not recommend a PC based system for anything ongoing. PC's, particularly those based in Billyware (AKA Windows) tend to crash. Mildly irritating when dealing with a word Doc but really irritating if it results in lost video footage. I would suggest sticking with an embedded Linux based unit. These look like a standard VCR except they have a harddrive.
You might also be able to find a company who rents surveillance systems out on a short term basis. If you were local I could help you out, but Tennessee is another story.
I have also written an article on video surveillance. It goes through some of the technical aspects of video surveillance and camera selection. It can be found on my website at http://www.keepsafesystems.ca
You might also consider just putting some bait out there. Put some money somewhere slightly obvious. Do this in the morning and check when you come back. If you have a child, make sure it is somewhere where the child cannot reach. If it is gone then find some reason to let the person go. Of course if you are dealing with more than one person this could be difficult
Good Luck
