Try the KBOX or HDhomerun, both output in true HD formats the latestversion of th Kbox has an HDMI output. The HD homerun connects to your network and can be use with media center very easily to record and playback your shows. Both seem equal when it come to reception. The hd homerun lets you watch one program while recording another, but only two programs at a time per unit, so I can watch one program downstairs on my pc connected to my bigscreen, and the kids can watch one show, if I wish to have more tuners, simply add more boxes to the network. All these are under 129.00 with the older kbox runing at about 50-60 bucks (no hdmi, but component video for 1080i or 720p). Both units can connect to older pc monitors and get rue HdTV.
