I was wondering if anyone here was using either the HiPix or the MYhd HDTV PCI tuner cards? Are you happy with either one? I purchased the HiPix, but have not installed it yet due to USPS taking forever for my motherboard and cpu delivery :( Anyone not familiar with these cards, they allow you to receive and display/record HDTV signals on your PC, they use about 8 gigs of harddrive space and lose no quality of signal on playback, can't wait to try mine. and yes, you can record analog signals and use a website to schedule recordings so that it acts just like a Tivo.

The cheaper one on that site for a mac doesn't tune in HD signals and the more expensive one is WAY out of most peoples budget, especially if you want to have two of them in a computer so you can pause live TV and replay it, both of the two cards that I mentioned are $399/$359 respectively, software is a little buggy, but it is progressing.
