DIRECT TV HD BOX TO COAX

[MKNAKAL]

I HAVE A TV TUNER IN MY COMPUTER CONNECTED WITH COAX CABLE. HOW DO I CONNECT HD BOX TO COMPUTER? HD BOX DOESN'T HAVE COAX OUT

 

[hoky]

Get yourself a rf modulator and use the composite (yellow, red, white) connection to give yourself a coax output. This is what I did when I wanted to hook one box up to my bed room tv but leave it in the TV room.

and btw ALL CAPS is considered shouting

Or if the computer has a video capture card, just use its composite inputs.

A channel 3/4 modulator should be $10-15 so you could use your existing cabling. Or if you have an old VCR still sitting around you can use the A/V inputs to it and the ch 3/4 modulator built into it.

just so you know, you wont receive HD on the pc doing this.
