 dear all,

 spotted a tv-tuner today, in an external usb matchbox-sized device.
 quoted price: rs 1,350.

 connect your tv cable to the box, connect box to usb, watch tv on your
 computer monitor.
 also found another box, that could also bring tv via box to your
 monitor directly without requiring the cpu.

 was about to get it. but did not know if it works with ubuntu.
 any users here, any specific models?
 any issues?

 more importantly: does it record video.
 full-screen, full-motion?

it looked like a tech-com. did not note down the exact model.
my question was: is there any usb-based tv-tuner device that works on linux,
that anyone knows of?

another way of putting it:can such a device work natively under linux
with off-the-source-forge stuff like gstreamer, vlc, and other video
components?

   connect your tv cable to the box, connect box to usb, watch tv on your
   computer monitor.
