USB 2.0 Based TV tuners attach to a laptop through the USB port. These are the primary answer, but not the just answer to utilize a TV tuner on a laptop. But, for easy high speed video data to be moved from the TV tuner to the system, these devices work best with USB 2.0. If you have an old laptop with a USB 1.1 port (11Mbps), do not even think of buying a USB TV tuner. The bazaar for external USB TV tuners is red hot plus there are a multitude of options sporting various capabilities so that you be able to acquire that wonderful TV tuner for your requirements.
