I wouldn't advise it. Find one that supports Firewire and you're in business, but honestly unless it has a tuner built in then its not worth the money spent trying to make it work.

USB is quite a bit slower when you factor in the overhead traffic. Going from USB to Firewire would be like going from 10Mbps to 100Mbps a network.Matrix wrote:Why firewire?
