Your right, i think you also need an arial input, which my monitor doesnt have.
I think im going to have to go with the USB version, does anyone know of a USB stick that comes with a schedular, i found one from PC world, although its £80, which seems abit steep. So if anyone could find me a cheaper version that comes with a schedular i would be pleased.
The benefits of this is that it automatically records programs when they're on, you can view what programs are due to be on etc etc
