How do i capture digital TV using a TV Tuner card?

Asked by Chukkii in Home Theater Systems, PC Laptops

I'm currently using this card in my laptop:
http://www.leadtek.com/eng/tv_tuner/overview.asp?lineid=6&pronameid=428

I can't seem to capture any channels or any TV signals!

I have tried using the software that came with it but nothing happens!

There's input source sub menu and i have tried selecting "DTV" and "Analogue TV" I'm guessing analogue isn't working because i havent attached an antenna to the card (needs some weird cable to do so!)

So i'm trying to capture using digital option... i'm connected to the internet but i'm not sure what it still needs... I've tried both options again using windows media center but after a long scan, media center says it can't find me any channels and to make sure that the device is plugged into the computer (while scaning the card was flashing blue lights so it IS plugged in correctly)

Ah just tried again after restarting my computer, i found some channels! Only problem is... after i select a channel.. it just sits there and does NOTHING...
