Good evening.

I recently put together my new HTPC and SFF "gaming" pc.

Specs:
core i3-2120
gigabyte h77
kingston 2x4gb
asus 6870

digital devices cine CT v6
win 7 64 bit

Now I'm used to windows media center for live tv, which was farly easy to use.
But XBMC is just much more asthetically pleasing, that's why I'd like to use it for watching TV as well.

My question is quite simple: Whats the best way to get my live-TV-signal from the digital devices cine CT to XBMC?

Video recording isn't all that important to me, though it would be nice of course...
I read that MediaPortal is the only way to go right now, is that true?

Please forgive my stupid questions, but the more I read about live TV in XBMC, the more I got confused...

Thanks for your help!

look in the PVR sub-forum. might find what you're looking for there

I've been there, but as far as I understand the XBMC-PVR, I have to install another version of XBMC, rather beta, with the included PVR support?

My goal was to use one of the existing add-ons for XBMC.
