Looking for a Mac Pro TV tuner card with a QAM tuner?

Do they exist? I want to be able to record high def from the cable into my house.

Thanks

The TVmini HD (http://miglia.com/products/video/tvminihd/index.html) and HD+(http://miglia.com/products/video/tvminihdplus/index.html) from Miglia will tune clear QAM (they are external boxes, not card). But they won't do encrypted channels. What we need is something that will support cable cards and hdcp throughout the chain.

cheers.

How the hell do you get the cable into this thing? There doesnt appear to be a coax in port...

Never mind, found a screenshot of the back.. has coax

doesn't ship until june, i think. it appears to have been delayed multiple times (maybe the latest because of getting cutoff from shipping eyetv software with it).

cheers.

doesn't have a QAM tuner (see title of the thread). I believe the only way to get HD is over the air, no?

cheers.

my mistake I missed the QAM part, yes this will do over the air recordings.
