I am running WIN8 Pro with Media Center.

I would like to record TV into Media Center, but it requires a TV Tuner.

I have Sky+ with a Video Sender. It has a SCART connection.

Can anyone recommend a way, or a device, that can use a SCART connection input to Media Center?:think:

The SKY+ box would be the tuner.

I think what you could do is this.

Find a scart to video cable converter which connects to your scart socket but has output terminals for composite video cable.

Like this Scart Adapter Only £4.59 at TVCables

Now you will need a video capture card on the PC to input the signal to record it.

(PS I'm not sure if this will work for HD transmissions - never tried it).
