Default TV tuner for my portable DVD player?

So why do you waste bandwidth trying to be the news group cop? There's one
of you guys in every one of these new groups.




Since you put it that way, because idiots like you want help, but can't
even bother to stick around until the solution is found.

What in the world does repair have to do with your problem?

And yes, you've spread your silly post all over the newsgroups, but
instead of asking "well that's a solution, I need more details" you
shift to another newsgroup where you start practically from scratch
again. Someone in sci.electronics.basics provided the bit about
the computer card, but you didn't stay there. When this happens, usually
it is becuase the poster doesn't like the answer they get, it doesn't
fit the answer they expect, so they move to another newsgroup hoping
to find the answer they were expecting in the first place.

This isn't primarily an issue of bandwidth. It's about how idiots
like you don't get the help they seek because a) you don't ask in
the right place, b) you don't provide enough details, c) you don't
continue in the thread after some solutions are offered, and d)you
don't like the answers anyway.

There is no indication that you can do what you want, except by
buying something. If you don't have a clue about the best newsgroup
for asking the question, and you can't stick with the thread when
someone does offer a solution, it doesn't seem likely that you can
deal with stripping down a VCR to make it compact, or adapt a
computer card for use as a tuner.
