OK , I'm cheap and don't want to pay Directv an additional monthly fee for them to supply a DVR so my wife can see the shows she misses the nights she has to work . I already have a PC hooked up to the TV and use it to play stored content , so that part is covered . What I want is a PCI card that I can use to record a couple of the series she likes for later playback . There's a whole bunch of stuff out there , from just a few bucks to hundreds ... I'm not looking for the absolute lowest price , just a functional device to capture some video . It needs to run under WinXP Pro , though if I have to I can install Vista (but I'd rather not) on that comp for the Media Center program . Any suggestions for a brand or a particular model ? I'd prefer to stay below 50 bucks ...
