Explanation
A TV tuner card (also called a capture card) is a hardware device that allows a computer to receive over-the-air or cable television signals. It converts the TV signal so the computer can display, pause, and record live television - essentially turning the PC into a DVR. A FireWire card handles high-speed device connections (e.g., camcorders), a wireless card provides Wi-Fi connectivity, and a serial card adds legacy serial ports - none of these provide TV reception or recording capability.
