Default Video Capture through External TV Tuner

Sir,
I want an external TV tuner Box which I can use on my 19" LG LCD Monitor without switching on the PC.

However I want to record TV programs whenever I want by switching on the CPU (via USB port). I hope external TV tuners with both VGA out & USB interface should be available.

I searched a lot but couldn't find a qualifying product, Pls help me finding the exact model.

Thank you.

not possible, for this you will need not a TV Tuner but set top box, like Dish TV, Tata Sky and all.

There are many products available if you wanna record when system is on.

Check Pinnacle 50e,
I had used a USB TV Tuner from UMax (cost 1800) had good quality and alright recording.

What do you mean by VGA out & USB interface.

By VGA Out : I mean I can connect to any CRT/LCD Monitor without switching on PC.

By USB interface : I mean the same external tV tuner should have a optional USB interface which may stream video to PC for recording whenever required.

why do you want to stream to PC via USB, you can do the same via VGA splitter, so both your TV and PC monitor are on VGA. Then you can use your PC with any good PVR (pinnacle is good) software to record shows.....
