    Installation

    Installation is very straightforward based on the quick install guide that is included:

    The first thing you need to do is install the included video card and its drivers. Plug the personal cinema into the back of the video card with the included green wire. Everything is setup now, and you should see the green LED light up on the personal cinema. Next step would be to install the included software, especially WinDVR to use the TV-tuner functions.

    Now simply plug in the cable/antenna plug and open up the WinDVR software, everything should be recognized and it will start to search for channels that get a signal. Also for audio, you will need to plug in a 1/8" audio jack from the personal cinema into your soundcard input, and another cable from your soundcard output into the speakers. This way you will have audio on your computer as well as from the TV-tuner and any inputs you put in.

    Now you can input any video and/or audio sources via composite or S-Video and output back the same way. This way for example, you can capture some video, edit it, and output back to a VCR to put it on a tape.
