Hey All,

I had posted my Query on a Home Theater Forum but am getting NO responces so I thought I would ask you all here..

I currently got Blu Ray 3D working on my PC and was wondering if it would be possible to get Comcast 3D Cable channels on my PC with a TV Tuner.. This one is digital and does the HD channels but will the 3D Channels work with it:


http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815706001


Now I ask as this is a pretty costly item and do not want to get stuck with a 200Dollar Paperweight.. I have searched Comcast website but that was futile and some pretty useless info there..

THNX for any help..

You simply need a video card that produces stereostropic graphics like an Nividia or new Ati card a set of glasses and your golden.


Good Luck
