Re: Recommended Tuner for Comcast Digital?

Alright so basically I can continue using my current setup if I just buy the $50 USB-IRT...and if I want to start recording HD and all that fun stuff it's gonna start costing...so basically something I'll look into in a few months.

One last question-- right now I have a splitter set up so that I have my analog cable connected to both the Tuner and the TV itself (computer connects with analog monitor cable), this way I can still watch TV while recording without getting a 2nd tuner...

Would I be able to pull something like this off with Digital? I'm assuming the cable box would have some problems with this...but I'm hoping that I could use BTV for all normal channels...and in case I want to watch something else while recording OR to watch HDTV I could watch straight off the TV...is this possible? The only way I see this happening is if I do the split BEFORE the cable box (then no longer needing a Blaster)...but then how much would I be losing on BTV? Would I lose channels after 125, or what?
