Time shift TWC HD programs?

I would like to puchase an HDTV card for my PC in order time shift some of the HD content from HBO-HD which I get from TWC.  The output from my cable box is RGB component video.  It doesn't look like any of the PC cards will accept this as an input.  Am I missing something?  Are there any ways to convert the signal so I can get it to the PC card?

I am looking at the MyHD MDP-100 by MIT or the HiDTV Pro HDTV/SDTV/NTSC Receiver/Recorder.

Any help would be appreciated.

None of the current cards will allow you to import component video, they only allow NTSC inputs (ie: s-video, composite video).  None of them have software to time shift a program....you can't have it record and delay 10 minutes..but you might try the threads on some of the big boards like AVS as someone may have come up with a Hack for it.

I have HiDTV Pro card and use it for recording HighDef and it works great....there are 2 of us here on this board that have dual setups....pc card and STB...best of all worlds.
