The 7800 was the only card(that I can recall, at least) that had TV input as basically a side feature. Any other cards are ones like the All In Wonder series(which also has a tuner) or other such cards...

Capture cards aren't that expensive. $60 will get you a really nice one.

so all i have to buy is a capture card and i can get tv???

right, as long as you can hook it up to cable, i dont know if you could do it with an intenna, but if u did I do not think it would look good

so you can get any TV capture card and it should work as long as you have decent graphics
