Dear lazyweb…
I'm soon moving out and don't want to lug around my 15″ TV. I've got a 17″ widescreen laptop, so I figure I can use that for TV and Xbox. I need a USB dongle that does digital TV, and that I can connect to composite video and phono stereo audio (for the XBox). Any ideas of something that will work with Linux? Thanks.

google is your friend: http://www.google.com/search?q=usb+hdtv+linux&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=com.ubuntu:en-US:official&client=firefox-a http://www.linuxtv.org/ should have a lot of info, iirc I *think* most HDTV tuners do NTSC/PAL analog as well. As usual, be careful of your region and the tuner's region. I've not bought one or used one; I was thinking I would be using my notebook for TV since I wasn't going to use the usual people for my internship housing, but I ended up using them anyway.
