TV tuner in Linux?

Hey all,

I used to use a TV tuner in Windows Media Center a lot, and of all the things I do at home, a working TV tuner is the one thing I haven't been able to do so far in Linux.  Granted, it's been about 3 years since I tried last, so maybe more progress has been made, but here's what I'm trying to accomplish:

• Get a TV tuner with either component or HDMI input

• Have it work in Linux

• Some software that I could use to view it in real time (doesn't even need to record; that part's not too important to me).

Reason why I want HDMI or component is because I want to be able to use my PS3 on my monitor without having to switch inputs all the time, or I could play in a 720 window, and still be able to keep an eye on other things.

If anyone has any pointers I'd greatly appreciate it!  I've been looking around and haven't found anything solid yet, as far as hardware goes.  Thanks!
