when you say analogue, do you mean by VGA connection?

the cheapest I think maybe just get a TV card, you pick one up for 45euro the cheapest I've seen!

I use one of them myself, mine is a Pinnicle one, €75, great card and records very well, no frame drops! but that also depends on you cpu power!

Thanks for info striker,

yeah a Vga connection..sorry.hmm reason i was asking and should of been more clear.im thinking of getting a 19inch tft and this one i have at moment is a 15inch and i was going to put it up in daughters room and save a bit of space too.Just thought there might be a connection to hook up to it so i could just plug in a tv connection for her..

hmm... i see, I dunno about TV but I do know theres VGA connection made for PS2 or some other console, maybe there's one made for TV, but I really dont know!

You will need a TV tuner with a VGA out. I've seen them somewhere but I can't remember where. I'll look now.
