  1. I'm looking to build an HTPC but I don't know which TV tuner card to buy. The potential problem lies in the fact that I live in Japan and I want to be able to see Japanese channels. I don't know if a U.S.-spec card will work, and I could buy a Japanese tuner here but I don't know if the drivers and software will be in English or will work on an English version of Vista.

    A little background -- I have a U.S.-spec TV here and it has trouble picking up Japanese channels. I think it is because certain channels are already preprogrammed to pick up certain frequencies, and those don't match to the frequencies broadcast here in Japan.

    Does anyone know of a TV tuner card that WON'T have similar issues?

    Thank you.

  2. Japan has a different NTSC so US equipment may not work. Some stores sell multi system devices. Give us more info on what kind of reception you want to use.
