Where to put my second box?
 
Hi Guys,

Telewest are coming out in a few week to install TV Drive in my living room, it was cheaper to keep a second box for £5 a month but i dont know wether to let my sister have it or have it in my room. I hear you say why are you asking us that lol. Well, i dont have a tv in my room, what i have is a digital tv tuner that plugs into my computer via USB. Would i be somehow able to plug the telewest cable into it and pick up the channels through that???

Thanks a Lot,

Philip :dunce:

Does the USB tuner have a AV input of any kind on it or does it just have the ariel input?

unfortanly as its a digital tuner i don't think theres any way to plug it up to the telewest box.

If it was a anolouge tuner or had an AV input then you could have pluged the stb into it.

if you wanted to use the telewest box on your pc you'd need a tv tuner with a AV in.
