Video Capture Cards/Devices are used to get the picture from the cable, aerial, or satellite television source into the PC. They decode and capture the video signal from the channel you want to view or record. Most cards/devices include a tuner to capture an specific TV signal. Video capture cards/devices without tuners do exist, but these are used for mainly security DVR's.
