You cant watch regular TV on the computer...unless you get a TV card for the computer.\n\nYou can only watch internet TV on your computer without that card.\nIf you wanna try that go to this link and they will guide you to a TV station with online broadcasts\n\nhttp://wwitv.com/portal.htm

There are several good tuner solutions on the market today, but I haven't personally used any that are external and use USB. \n\nI think plextor makes a good USB SD solution:\nhttp://www.plextor.com/english/products/product_dvc.html\n\nHauppauge also makes a USB SD solution:\nhttp://www.hauppauge.com/pages/products/data_pvrusb2.html\n\nThe only HDTV capable capture cards on the market do *not* support windows. But, they work great in linux and are extremely well supported by the mythtv (PVR) project & community.\n\nThe HD capture cards are made by the pcHDTV company.  \nhttp://www.pchdtv.com/ \nthe pcHDTV™ HD-3000 is thier latest & greatest.\n\nAs far as windows goes, the best cards are made by the hauppauge company.\nhttp://www.hauppauge.com/\nThey have several cards that you might look at (if you can add a PCI card instead of USB device).  I personally recommend the WinTV-PVR-350 as a first card.  It comes with a remote and uses hardware on the card to do the encoding (saves CPU bandwidth) and if you choose to use it for video out, it also has a hardware encoder.\n\n\nCheck out these links for an open source PVR project:\n\nhttp://www.mythtv.org/\nhttp://www.mysettopbox.tv/knoppmyth.html\n\nWell, I hope that helps.

YES\n\nThe concept of being able to watch TV on your computer has been around for quite some time now.  In fact, there are already quite a few TV cards available in the market today.  Some of the more well known brands include Hauppauge as well as ATI.  ATI’s TV tuners can be found separately in the ATI TV Wonder series or integrated in video cards in ATI’s All-In-Wonder series.\n\nUnfortunately, the idea has not been as appealing to consumers due to several reasons.   First of all, if you were to compare the picture quality on the same standard TV signal, you would immediately notice that picture quality looks better on a regular TV as opposed to a computer screen.  This is because the TV signal is not quite appropriate with the resolution on a computer monitor.  In addition, there isn’t much visibility of these kinds of products in a retail store because you rarely see a computer demonstrating TV capabilities on a computer. Companies have taken a slightly different route with the introduction of LCD screens with built-in TV tuners.  This is great in bringing awareness of being able to watch TV on your computer, but it still has the same poor picture quality.\n\nHDTV technology is starting to become standard in the latest types of digital televisions costing upwards of thousands of dollars.  Now ATI is bringing the same experience of HDTV to the computer user with their HDTV Wonder package which retails for $200.

well if you still have a beta player that works, you can use window media player 10 or you can get some coverters from like newegg.com that will allow you to connect the beta to the pc....other then that  betas are long gone unless you look on e-bay for a player. Good Luck though.

All agree that you need a TV tuner card.  I have a 'Hauppage Win TV' card which is quite good and easy to install into a PCI slot.  Don't forget the coaxial cable and TV connection.  Just follow the installation instructions.  You can do it..

Try to find a a TV tuner card that would be compatible with a laptop. There are many available for desktops, but there might be a way to convert one so it can be used on a laptop.

Several days after it went off-line, it reappeared announcing that it had been scammed by the ISP, then bounced off. It redirected to another site, which had the old list of shows and movies. Unfortunately I did not bookmark the new site, so I lost it, but I believe it's still out there somewhere. I'm looking for it too.\n\nHERE IT IS: http://www.tv-links.co.uk/index.html

Yeah, Yahoo! really screwed the pooch with the roll-out of the new TV web interface.  It's majorly broken, badly designed, ugly, and hard to navigate.\n\nWorst thing I've seen in a while.

I'm not sure if you can find it for free.  They are selling it for approx. $39.95 on several internet sites.\n\nHere's one:\n\nhttp://www.tv-memories.com/store/description.php?id=379\n\nHope this helps!

You would need to purchase something called a TV Tuner Card.  Some of them come with remote controls and decent ones usually cost, at most, about $30.  If you have a laptop or you don't have an available PCI slot to install it, you can get external USB TV Tuner Cards, as well.\n\nSome graphics cards come with NTSC and Digital tuners built in.  You do not necessarily need to replace the entire graphics card.  \n\nHere's a cheap internal PCI one with a remote\n\nhttp://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1698860&CatId=1427\n\nHere is an external.  They are generally more expensive.\n\nhttp://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1961041&CatId=0
