TV Tuner and application

Me too.  

--- It really couldn't be any simpler well unless you were to have installed 
SuSE (plug plug plug hehehehe).
You'll need to have a GREAT desktop enviornment installed so pick either KDE 
or Gnome, or both for that matter.  Nothing wrong with that.  (I prefer KDE 
by a mile but most RH'ers still prefer Gnome)  It's just a desktop and both 
are excellent.  Both run each others programs anyway.  That takes care of all 
your X stuff needed.

All you have to do is choose some of the programs you want to use, test with 
until you find your favorites, use RH's software installer whatever it's 
called, and all the software's needed libs and dependencies will be checked   
off and added automatically too.  I don't know if there is a little box to 
check so dependencies are checked automatically or manually.  The system will 
warn you if you try to install something that has other dependencies.  If you 
make major changes to the X windowing system you should log out as that user 
and then log back in so the X server is restarted.  You don't have to reboot 
though.  
Personally haven't used RH since 7.3 Pro came out and even that was for 
experimental purposes only.  Nothing to it though, everything is automatic.

Oh, and the 3D wasn't necessary to watch video's on my systems.  I don't 
honestly know it's needed for TV but I highly doubt it.  

Which input are you using on the video card to generate your TV or video and 
is it coming from a TV, VCR, DVD, another video card, what have you?
