TV tuner and TV in

[Warthog]

Is there a difference? Both let you watch TV on your computer, right?

TV in should let you but I believe you may be speaking about tv out (?) unless your video card is a TV tuner as well. Often cards have a tv out so you can use a tv as a monitor to watch dvd's or play games.

One additional comment - "TV in" and "Video In" aren't the same thing. A card with "TV in" capabilities should have a tuner with it, such that you can hook it up to your cable jack and watch Everybody Loves Raymond. "Video In" is just an input without a TV tuner that you can use to say, transfer movies from your video recorder or VCR to your computer.

But you probably already knew that!
