If I bought an LCD TV that doubled as a computer monitor, would I be able to
record TV to the PC? Would I need special software to do so?

Thanks very much.


if you have a dv camera that has analog to digital passthrough then
you can record high quality video on your pc with a fireware cable.

1. put the video out from the lcd tv to the dv cam
2. put the fireware cable from the dv cam to the pc ( ur pc will need
to have a fireware port, latest motherboards have them built in,
audigy 2 zs sound card has one). make sure you turn on av-video to dv
option in your dv cam.
3. record using microsoft movie maker that comes with xp/vista or
other software.
