I have a question - I recently got cable-modem service here (hurrah!) and its been great (getting around 250k d/ls). Anyways, I had a WinTV tuner card that I removed since my TV cable now goes to my modem (what a choice! Broadband...TV...Broadband...TV...Ah, Broadband!). Is is safe to split the signal and use the WinTV card? Or will that degrade the signal and cause problems? What are other tuner card owners doing?
Thanks!
It would seem so D.L. My cable has been running 2 TVs, a cable modem, and two VCRs for almost 5 years now. No worries. Since it's an apartment building there's probably a booster on the line in the utility room though.
I seriously doubt the TV Card will degrade the cable performance for you anyway. Just be sure of the splitter quality and have fun! (-:
I have to second that. I split mine between three tv's and the wintv-go card no prob bob!
