Yeah, in fact it's a heck of a lot easier than having to hook it up to a cable/satellite box.
I always thought hooking up to cable box was easier. It is for me. I just have to hook up coaxial, and i get video right away. Then change channels via remote. For the wall, I have to have ALL channels scanned then I have to change the channels via the tuner and it's a bit complicated but feasible
BTW, what TV Tuner card do you have CE?
