Viewing tv on pc?
I am currently using something called a Location Free Player which is made by Sony. Its fairly simple to setup, just plug in all the cords load it on your computer and you are ready to go. As long as noone at your house changes the channels on you, then you can watch whatever you want :)





The infared cord actually fits below the receiver for the remote (where you point the remote to change channels) If you bought the television tuner along with your computer, then you SHOULD be set to go. I didnt so I had to buy the Location Free player.





Feel free to email me with any questions.
Reply:You can watch TV on PC just installing one piece of software:
Reply:When I got my PCTV I got it from pinnacle. It was USB so first i connected the usb to the computer. Then there was an antenna sort of thing which i connected to the USB. I put the disk in and installed it and I was fine.
