Hey Irish. I have been thinking about setting something up like this my self but I just don't have the time right now. Would suggest looking at maybe one of these though

or

http://hauppauge.com/Pages/products/data_hvr1600.html

I have never used either of these and my knowledge is pretty limited in this area but it looks like its what you want?

You could also check out or post in the tech / home entertainment of boards.

You're probably after an analogue TV card (either PCI internal or USB2 external) and not a video card (video cards don't have aerial connections on them).

TIMESHIFT
#

You would like to watch a show but you are in*disposed and can start to watch 20 minutes later. In order not to miss the beginning you start the timeshift recording at the beginning of the show and 20 minutes later timeshift play*back.
#

You would like to watch a film without advertisements. Now you start the timeshift recording at the beginning of the film and give the DVBViewer a lead of approximately 25 minutes. Then you start timeshift playback and watch the film from the beginning. The current playback position of the recording is displayed in the progress bar in the toolbar. Reaching an ad-break just skip it by simply using the progress bar slider.

# In case you're interupted while watching a movie just click the pause button, timeshift recording will start automatically. Continue with clicking on the play button.
