Basically your PC is acting as a hard disk recorder though obviously what you are recording you would have to be watching at the same time.
Hope this helps,

This is basically what I do using Windows Media Centre. I have an IR blaster set up so the PC controls the channel changing and because I never watch anything live anymore I rarely get situations where I cannot record because of clashes.
I'd love a legit way of feeding my paid for TV straight into my PC (not interested in stealing at all) in the same way that CableCard works in the US.
