Here is my definition of HDTV ready PC

wide screen monitor can support native 1080i display resultion, many 24 '' LCD monitors are capaple of 1920 by 1200, but it is too expensive for me, I only got a 20'' one, at least can support 720p very well, most HD TV in the market only can support 720p, and transfer 1080i to 720p, any CPU better than P4 2.4 is good enough for decoding the HD signal, and a not too bad video card is also important, at least ati 9200 or above, the last one, a HDTV tuner is needed, there are many choices, ATI HDTV tuner is very famous, but I only plan to get a cheap one on Ebay.

        • ATI 的我都觉得烂,你还打算买更差的。
    • I bought a LCD TV three weeks ago, just got the free on the air HDTV today. I bought a HDTV tuner at ebay, but got some problem which took me some time to solve. I bought a indoor antenna at ebay.
      Now I can get the following channels:

      2-1,2-2,4-1,4-3,7-1,7-2,9-1,25-1, and some analog channels, channel 22 and channel 49 is good. My antenna is pointed to south->east. A guy told me most singnal come from south ( Buffalo ) and south west ( CN tower). My problem is I am living in a comdo ( so I can't have outdoor antenna) and my unit is facing east. Alough many people said you must use outdoor antenna, I feel ok with my indoor antenna.
      • Thanks for sharing
      • 你买的天线是什么牌子型号的?另外电视机上不是已经有Tuner了吗,怎么还需要另买一个呢?谢。
    • 俺弄了一个,ATI HTDV Wonder, 天线收21个台,大多数都很好。软件有点差,不过还可以忍受。清晰度可真叫高
      • 天线是在哪买的或如何自制?
      • 软件beyond TV 很好, 能解释一下为何 ATI的HDTV wonder 不好?谢谢了。
      • 你用的什么天线阿,能看到那么多台?另外对的什么方向?我看看我的能不能多调出几个台。谢谢
      • ATI的盒子里有个卡,一个遥控器,一个天线。我的房子位置比较好,窗户恰好能看见CN tower,21个台都是自动scan的
        • 都有些什么常看的台?效果容易受天气影响吗?
          • 天气影响不大,今天下雨就没什么影响,http://www.remotecentral.com/hdtv/ 会说部分台的情况
            • 不知道markham接受效果如何。是不是ati hdtv wonder自己就带了天线不用另外买?
      • HDTV效果究竟如何?比如跟ontario place 的imax比呢? 我看imax的时候,感觉慢的还可以,但快速物体就花了,看了头晕。
    • 这是我半个月前贴的有关HDTV的
      • Thanks a lot, man!
      • hi,nowwhat请问关于ati hdtv wonder的问题
        我下了ati网站上的程序,装在我的xp上面,可是每次装完ati multimedia 以后就会死机重起,我应该是载在这里了,你有相关经验吗,用的什么版本的驱动软件
    • Check this out...
    • some updates, I got a HDTV tuner card from ebay, 20 bucks and it works
      天线是walmart 20多元的 PHILIPS MNT 310F, 用这个天线的原因是3年前读书时买的,能用就可以了,我一共可以查到7,8个台,如:CITYTV, CBC, CTV, SUNTV, 2个美国台,效果很好。
