need tuner to to connect my set top box

Hi,
I have my media PC connected to 32" CRT FLAT TV through s-Video connection.
I want to connect my set top box to tv card so that I can watch encrypted channels in my area.

which card will give high quality picture though s-video/composite input connection ?
I tried MSI analogue TV@anywhere but the picture quality is bad. I need as goog as the quality I got when I connect the receiver box to the Tv directly.

I'm doing some search on ATI TV Wonder™ HD 650 COMBO USB for PC:
http://ati.amd.com/products/tvwonder650/usb/index.html

will this card give sharp picture ?


any help is appreciated.

Re: need tuner to to connect my set top box

Not sure what cards will be better for you, but you should realise that you are dealing with analogue signals here, and each transform process will degrade the signal. I doubt that you will ever get the signal to be as good as when you run it straight from you set top box to the TV.
