Windows 7 x64 TV Tuner I'm looking for a simple TV tuner that's compatible with windows 7 64-bit.
My requirement are that it needs to be PCIE, has a "tivo" function, and has a composite video input. (for use with gaming consoles) I will be plugging in basic from-the-wall cable into it.
I'm wondering if anyone's found a good one like this, for a decent price.
~Thanks

Thanks,I've seen that one, and it would be perfect, except its kinda pricey compared to others I've been looking at. I've ruled out Hauppauge as a brand already :P
Also, has anybody tried hooking things like ps2, n64, gamecubes, and wii's to thier moniter via these tv tuners? Do they work well? | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Mine OS Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit CPU Wolfdale E8500 3.16ghz @ 3.8ghz Motherboard Asus P5PKL-CM Memory Kingstong 2GB DDR2 @ 840Mhz Graphics Card PNY Geforce 8800GT Monitor(s) Displays LG W2252TQ 22" LCD Keyboard S510 Wireless Mouse Microsoft Comfort Optical Mouse 3000 PSU Rosewill 600W Hard Drives Western Digital 7200rpm 1TB SATA

Just the basic info, and anything else about your experiences with that card that may help other would be great  as i all ready said i had it running in x64 win 7 using beyondtv without any problems. it is easy to update the drivers. one click on the driver file and it does the rest. honestly i would not use any other card than hauppauge. i am currently thinking about their 2250. this all the info i have. hope it helps.
