    Heyaaa =D

    I have a Lifeview LR535 TV Tuner - but the Quality of Analoge TV is very bad!
    It's also known as FlyTV Mini Express.
    Screenshot added!

    Who of you has also an internal TV Card? Who can make a screenshot of Analog Cable TV? (PAL)

    It's not DVB-T it's analog!!

    So who of you has an internal TV Card and can post some screens?!

    You have a better quality if you put a 22" LCD Screen on the Laptop!

    Maybe because they don't need it? The only reeason I'm getting a Tv for my dorm room is because my ps3 won't work with the tuner of the laptop....

    So your desired application was originally to play your ps3 using the screen of your laptop. I'm talking about watching TV on your laptop.

    Now the TV you got is to play with your ps3, right?

    Isn't it the same? Using the included tuner to display video and audio signals from an external source? :D

    Not really, if you want to play ps3 with the laptop I fully understand it, but to watch TV???? Unless you are in a plane or waiting somewhere in the campus, ok, but if I want to watch TV I would just go in front of one with all the right size, resolution and comodity of the couch :)
