TV Tunner on Samsung UN55D6900

Post by George »

I have quick question about what configuration is required.

I have Samsung TV which has on board TV Tuner with ATSC/QAM specifications and just wonder if my computer connected to this tv with HDMI can receive signals to complete hardware requirements.

If you mean to use the TV's tuner in myth as a recorder then the simple answer is no you can't do that. Most/all TV's only allow it's tuner to be used for it's own use and don't output anything that Myth could use to record the tuners output.

It would make a good display for myth to use though using the HDMI input.
