You cannot always enjoy online television because of low quality, slow broadband internet connection<\/a> and limited number of channels, but its very much possible to view your complete TV in your laptop using a TV Tuner Card. There are basically two types of TV Tuner cards available in the market which are Internet and External and in case of a Desktop computer you can setup any of these, but i would recommend using a external TV Tuner card for laptop because a PCI TV tuner card would be a problem.<\/p>\n

External USB Models are easier to setup and can be handled easily as you dont need to play with the hardware of your laptop in order to get started. You can search online shopping sites for different available USB TV tuner cards which come with a remote control to change channels. These also feature saving screenshot to images, resizing images, auto-scan, full channel scan, parental control<\/a>.<\/p>\n

These offer you taking screenshots from live TV channels to recording videos directory to your laptop’s hard disk drive when you are not available in order to make sure you can watch a TV show in the later period, a scheduled recording feature.
