Coax Cable Out to Watch TV on Computer?

Can you hook the coax out to the input of your video card to watch tv on your computer? I have a media center PC and would like to know if I can use the hard drive on my computer to record shows off the satellite.

the answer to your question is yes. It is just like using a cable box so basicly you tune your pc's tuner to whatever channel the 522 is outputing on and there ya go.

But you can't use the 522 as a standalone dish receiver for the media center pc?
