I'm moving next month, and the computer in my signature is going into the bedroom. I don't want to have to buy another TV, so I was hoping I could use this computer as a mini HTPC.
I don't have any HD receivers, so my TV comes in standard definition. I have AT&T U-Verse, which comes with a 4-room DVR system, so I don't need a card that has a lot of bells and whistles such as capturing/HD.
All I do need is a simple(cheap) card that has a coax input. I'm a total newbie when it comes to this stuff, so bear with me. The main concern is the fact that I run a 1920x1200 resolution on my computer monitor, so I need a card that will pump out a good quality picture. Going fullscreen in standard definition on this monitor isn't going to look the greatest.
