We'll let Bruce lay it out for you:
What is the best method or hardware for the amateur to use in a PC to record cable TV signals - we use Comcast HD service with box top now but my understanding is that we can only really record Clear QAM over the air.
Of course, one angle is to man up and get in line for an InfiniTV card, but if all you want to do is record HD sources on your PC, we want to know what is the best way to go about it. There's always the Hauppauge HD PVR, but is that the only or best way? Let us know how you do it in the comments.

Got a burning question that you'd love to toss out for Engadget HD (or its readers) to take a look at? Tired of Google's blank stares when you ask for real-world experiences? Hit us up at ask at engadgethd dawt com and keep an eye on this space -- your inquiry could be next.

If you wanted to launch a videogame site in the old days all you needed was high school grammar and a bunch of grainy, 300 x 200 screencaps of Mario 64. Today's readers are a more fickle bunch, wanting monitor-busting screenshots and CPU-taxing HD videos of the latest Xbox 360 and PS3 titles. To cater to the sites who will cater to those gamers, Digital Foundry is launching the HDScope, a pixel-crunching, semi-portable PC designed explicitly for recording content in 480i, 576i, 480p, 720p, or 1080i via component or HDMI inputs. It sports a 7-inch touchscreen, meaning you can just plug this into the wall and start gathering footage from that exclusive (and oddly dusty) beta copy of Duke Nukem: Forever you scored. No word on price or availability, but launch a site full of random videos captured on one of these and you'll surely be swimming in ad revenue -- and outrageous hosting fees.

[Thanks, Dirk]
