OK, so if I build my HTPC, is it possible to use the tuner from my plasma for recording? or MUST I get a tuner card right away?
Also, is it is fine idea to send the sound digitally (coax, toslink ,etc) from the mobo's built-in sound chip, or is it still advisable to use a separate sound card? I'l be sending the sound digitally to a receiver which will be doing the DAC job, so I don't see at this point any real reason to buy a separate sound card (or should I?).
