You'll need a splitter for sure. However, your cable box can only deliver one feed at a time, so if you want to watch live tv on your cable box and have the computer record a cable channel at the same time on a different channel, then that won't work. You'll have to split the signal before the box and just give your computer the analog channels that don't need the box, or vice versa. That's the situation I'm in. I have an IR blaster but my scientific atlanta box doesn't have a discreet power code, so I don't trust it as supplying my mythtv computer. With roommates and all, I'm guaranteed to lose half of my recordings because they'll turn it off and such. Pretty much all of the channels I watch are analog anyway...as a matter of fact, I can't remember the last time I watched any digital channels. ~Lou
