Ok, I would like to buy a TV tuner card which enables me to watch/record/pause QAM channels that are provided through my school (Carnegie Mellon Univ.) Now, I am guessing since they are through the regular cable package that the school gives us that they would be unencrypted. I am pretty sure from my reading that there are no tuner cards that can receive encrypted QAM channels as you would need a CABLEcard to decrypt them. If anyone knows my situation or has encountered a similar situation I would appreciate it. And what cards are quality, I haven't done any real research on cards yet as I would like to know what type, if any, I should be looking for. Thanks in advance.
