Re: VGA TV tuner module?

["paul_watkin" <paul_watkin@xxxxxxx>]

Parents have this setup on the boat, using an Avermedia tuner
(http://averm.co.uk) and an HP LCD, thi= s was done before combined
jobs were out.

Nowadays I doubt it is much cheaper to get the two units seperately
than buy the Samsung TV, the cheap TV Tuners don't seem to work with
LCD panels due to issues with the refresh rate. The Cheap Avermedia
we had initialy worked on 17" CRT but refused to display correctly on =
LCD. They have the Aver TV Box which is approx =A3150 from Eclipse
Computers in Coventry (http:/= /www.eclipse-computers.com) under
graphics cards.
