TV Tuner (Optional)

Some models include a TV Tuner card, located in one of the PCI card slots at

the back of the computer. The TV Tuner enables you to connect a standard

television cable to your computer, allowing you to receive a television signal.

The included PowerVCR software allows you to watch TV and record

programs, with the added benefit of time-shifting playback.

PowerVCR can accept an analogue or cable TV signal. It can also play and

record content from VCR and camcorders (Hi8 and V8), digital camcorders

(DV) and PC cameras.

Refer to the PowerVCR online help for detailed instructions on using the

application.

Watching TV

PowerVCR provides a number pad for channel selection, as well as standard

channel changing controls. In addition, Auto Scan searches for available

to preview sixteen channels simultaneously. Click on Surf Channels to

display a page of preview channels arranged in a 4 x 4 grid. Next Page and

To select a channel, click on the preview window for that channel. The

channel will then appear in normal display mode. Alternatively, click Cancel

Surfing to exit the channel surfing feature.
