Question by mtclimer78: how does recording or watching tv on a PC work?
We are subscribed to dish network and I am wondering how to use our PC to record and watch TV through our regular TV. One reason I want to do this is because we also subscribe to NetFlix and as we download movies it would be great to watch them on the big screen. Do I have to have some kind of special video card in my PC to make this work and a certain software as well. Thanks for any help you can suggest.
