At the heart of any true HTPC is the TV Tuner – the whole source and reason for the machine’s existence.

From bitter experience, I can attest to the fact that regardless of how much money you spend on an HTPC system, if the tuner is a dodgy one then you may as well not have bothered. It needn’t be a problem with the hardware itself – perhaps the software drivers are buggy or badly-implemented. Either way, it’s a world of pain.
