laptop as DVR
Today I'm programming my laptop to record The new girl.

Since my TV is prehistoric and doesn't convert air signals to digital, I'm using a cheap dtv converter box which I picked up at Fry's electronics. I use eye TV to record the signal off the coaxial cable. Fortunately, this technique still works. I can't say the same about the Zephyr infrared Channel changer. I don't have Internet, so I can't really troubleshoot the problem. I don't want to spend too much time online trying to fix the problem anyway. I simple make sure the TV is tuned to the channel it's supposed to be on to record the show.
