Topic: HDTV Tuner, Receivers and Set Top Boxes?

[mistybear]

Not sure if anyone can help me with this.

I would like to be able to watch the IPL Cricket, but our broadcaster TEN 10 is broadcasting some of them on their new HD channel. I have Standard Definition box, which I don't use. I also have Pay TV via Satellite and this computer has a TV card, not sure which though and it probably not Digital.

Now there are HD Set Top Boxes, TV Tuners for your PC, other ones that will plug into your monitor and your TV, then TV on the internet. Oh and satellite as well.   

Actually I'm watching it on the net via their website iplt20.com, quality isn't that great though.

So does anyone know what is best, and of course cheapest.

I use a  HD digital USB TV Tuner for my laptop, it cost $30 & works fine.

I'm watching the IPL Cricket right now, Standard Definition box, the quality is fine.

Standard set top box on the tele? Bugger, I'm too tired to get mine out and and attach everything. You sure you can get TEN 10 HD?

Oh, I just had a look at TEN and they are showing a replay of the game that I just watched on iplt20.com, is that the one you mean, Hussey is batting.
