That HDMI port on your laptop is for output, not input. What are you trying to do would definitely need some sort of tuner card.

If you want that for your laptop, your options are to either get a PCMCIA or a PCI-Express (is that what they are calling them?), that works faster. I am willing to bet that they are expensive and may or may not perform to expectations, though.

Don't know if that will do what you need it to do, but it's a start.

You will not find a PCI-E card for your laptop, these are for full size PC's. You need the PCMCIA tuner card.

They call them ExpressCards. More bandwidth than old PCMCIA cards.

The one I linked to at Amazon is ExpressCard.
