hey guys I've been doing alot of research and reading articles but I cant seem to come to terms with the complex understanding how the underground world works.

I plan to watch Cable and Satellite Tv channels on my PC.

I've purchased a PCI TV Card Digital Tuner DVB-T HDTV from ebay and I would like to watch Cable TV? I know I need an Antenna to Coaxial plug converter and when i get a program to scan the channels will that all be sufficient for it to work ? or is my hardware limited ?

My other question is on Satellite TV viewing on my PC Would buying a DVB-S or DVB-S2 PC Tuner PCI card to view FTA channels on my satellite dish can I also get a software program to decode the encrypted channels to watch ? Or do I need to get the sufficient hardware equipment to watch Satellite Encrypted channels.

I prefer to go via the PCI TV Tuner card way the other methods seem to complex to me.

The encryption the satellites using in my region is Irdeto 2 Videoguard & Irdeto 2
