You will need to get a special card for your PC. I used PCTV when I was in the UK, but there are others, such as WinTV.

Yeah, many if not most have S-Video leads on them. I recommend a set-top PVR box over a PCI card though. I highly recommend ConvertX by Plextor. The amount of plugins is not possible in card tuners and the picture quality is generally better. www.plextor.com...
