Is it possible to connect my TV screen to my PC monitor?

Question

I don't want to spend loads of money on a HD PVR. So I was wondering if there is anyway to connect your TV to your PC screen. I would then use a screen recorded such as Fraps or Hypercam to record what is on the pc screen.

Answer 2

Not in the way you are expecting no. Even if your PC screen had a TV compatible input connection that would not allow you to record the signal, it has to go through the PC first. For that you will need a TV capture card of some kind, there are plenty available including USB ones and all come with software to act as PVR's.
