I have just purchased and set up a new Phillips HDTV. I also have a Motorola HDTV Cable box and a Toshiba Tivo/DVD player. I am running the signals from both units through a Yamaha HD Compatible receiver Home Theater System to the HDTV. I have the video connected through the receiver using red/green/blue cables and sound is connected with an optical cable.
My problem is that our cable company only offers 6 HD channels and only 2 of them are local. I know that at least four other local channels broadcast in HD and would like to receive them also. Is there a way that I can receive an HD signal on my computer and connect that signal to the receiver? I know I can receive and record and HD signal using an HD compatible card (ATI), but can I then send that HD signal to the tv somehow.
My wife would also like to copy all of our CD's to the computer and play them through the Surround Sound System.
