    Hi,

    Anyone have any experience connecting NTL Digital to your PC/laptop? I have an AverMedia external USB TV tuner, and while I can connect my analog tv signal no problem, I haven't been able to connect the digital to the laptop. Tried a scart to RCA cable to no avail.

    Any suggestions appreciated.

    Cheers

    im assuming you are taking the signal from the box right? Some SCART adaptors and cables are directional which could cause a problem.

    Yes. I'm taking the signal directly from the silver NTL digital box. I've tried a scart to RCA cable, and using a standar tv cable, but nothing doing.

    This might seem like a silly question, but you're sure your tuner can handle digital? I thought some of them are analog only, and some are digital.

    yes it can.

    I'm trying to get the feed from the digibox to my tv card. Do I need an SVideo cable to do it?
