They're quite useful actually! I record all of my cableTV through the
Svideo input, and it's also useful for temporarily hooking up a VCR to
make nice MPEG2 recordings of old tapes. Here in the UK, I only get
the basic 5 channels through the tuner, so the extra inputs makes the
card actually worth having!
Very straightforward to setup in myth - you just need to know which
ivtv input matches the compositive or SVideo input on the card and
you're away.
Nick, you can get 'some' of the cable channels direct of the cable coax
if you get hold of an adapter to convert it to a normal aerial (sorry, I
forget the actual socket types right now, I already had one from the
initial cable installation as I didn't have a SCART capable TV at the time)
I had it setup that way initially, but the normal terrestrial channels
weren't good quality (while the cable channels were fine - go figure!)
You might also find that you can get one or two channels that you don't
get unless subscribed (I got sky sports3 clear as anything, pity I
didn't really want it!)
