This is easy if you have a TV tuner card in your PC. Simply connect the RF output of the STB to the aerial input of your card, tune in and away you go. Bear in mind that the STB can only decode one chanel at a time so, on the PC, you will be forced to watch the same programme as is on your main TV.

It would be possible to get a slightly better picture by using the composite video output of the STB but this is getting a bit more complicated.
