If your Xfinity box has HDMI, then you can hook it up, but this unit doesn't have speakers. you would have to hook up speakers to the headphone jack, or connect the cable box up to some sort of sound system.

I can't imagine why not. I used it to connect an AppleTV to a DVD recorder to record shows from the Apple and it worked fine. I'm not familiar with that particular Comcast unit but I imagine this box will work with any HDMI output. I assume this is for after the fact transfer of shows, I don't believe it would work as a "destination" for the Comcast box.

It does have an hdmi input so if you have a cable box that has HDMI output then yes you can. It does not have a coaxial connection.

The HDHomeRun can either receive clear Qam or ATSC over the air. If the output from your cable box, is a digital TV signal, clear Qam, output by 75 ohm cable, then it will only tune the channel the cable box is outputting. Hope this helps.

The TV has all the standard inputs. So connecting to cable should not be a problem.

If your dish network box has an HDMI output you should be able to hook it up to the HDMI input on the screen. I have the HDMI output of my cable box going into the HDMI in of the treadmill monitor and it works great.

Yes. I have a cable box, blue ray, and a video game attached. When you power up a unit, it will automatically switch. It gets its power from the hdmi connection. Lovin it so far.

It depends. If your satellite box outputs to Component video (i.e. five colored plugs), you're pretty much good to go. If it's standard-definition Composite video (three plugs), then you might need to find an adapter for it, as this card doesn't include one. HDMI connections might work as well, but be aware that this card does not comply with High-Definition Content Protection (HDCP) standards, so if your receiver box requires HDCP, then you will not get a signal via HDMI cable on this card.

it has only VGA, DVI and HDMI inputs, so if your cable box uses hdmi as its output, then you can watch TV on it but in most cases no it cant

It would work if your computer has a TV tuner card or a USB TV tuner device. Otherwise, no. There's no way to connect it to your cable box - the only inputs are a standard 15-pin DSUB VGA input and a DVI input. It will only connect to a computer, and the only way to route the cable TV signal through your computer is using a TV tuner device.

I have it connected to my cable box but am not sure if that's HDMI for sure.

If I recall correctly, HDMI1 is for Blue-Ray; so I used HDMI for my HD from cable box into receiver. Use the pass-thru out from receiver to TV. That way, you can still watch TV with receiver off.

You need the cable to get your cable box connected to your TV for the best picture quality if you subscribe to High Definition channels. A regular cable can also be used to connect your TV to your cable provider. You can use the HDMI to connect other things like a DVD player or Video Games consoles. Hope this helps!

If they are giving you a Cable box fine. But it does not have a QAM Tuner built in, unless they provide you with an external QAM Tuner.

Yes, you can watch Cable, dish, etc on it through component, HDMI, SVGA, or standard Video. I highly recommend HD channels to fully utilize the 1080 resolution though.

You can hook it up but if your cable box has hdcp encryption which I'm sure it does use you will not be able to watch tv from it. You will need to get a dvi-hdmi converter to bypass that part of it.
