    Hi I am wondering if it is possible to watch tv from a set top box the eur**** max box through Media centre 2005. I also have media portal but havent tested it out yet.

    I have just set up my laptop (Dell D610 on a docking station) as a Media centre to a new Sony Bravia via dvi to HDMI and a 5.1 surround sound system and a 500gb hard drive.All is working great. I am thinking of purchasing the ATI tv wonder usb card as its meant to be the best usb tv tuner going and a mc remote and a ir blaster cable from komplette.ie. But I need to know first if it will work with the eur**** max and how I could set it up.
    Any help would be great thanks.

    I assume like any cable box, you take the composite outputs from the box and use them as the inputs into your TV tuner card. Getting MCE 2005 to learn the remote control signals and changing all the channel numbers in MCE to match your cable box is probably doable but will take a bit of time, but it won't stop you from watching it on through MCE.
