Well shoot....
We've all found out that WMC in Windows 8 will be exactly as it is in the final release of Windows 8. This disappointed me because Windows Media Center had some serious potential as being something greater than it is.
Which leads me to my post, I need suggestions and recommendations on what to do with television input on my PC. I was going to wait and see if WMC was going to be overhauled in a cleaner, metro styled way so I could use a TV tuner card. Well, so much for that. I currently have a digital converter box that I could a couple years ago. I was wondering something, could I possibly have the functionality WMC would had provided with TV support, as in having televsion input on my PC so I could full screen it, window it, pause it; but have the converter box connected to an input on my PC?
