I used to have this "Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-950Q", and it worked great. I sold the HTPC, and I bought an all-in-one HTPC. The all-in-one included very similar HD tv tuner, and the live tv working great with 7MCE.....

I integrated XBMC to 7MCE as I mentioned in post #751......

What source are you looking to record? Over-The-Air (OTA)? Unencrypted cable (QAM)? Encrypted cable? What tuner to get starts with which of these you want to record.

What country?
