HD Receiver to PC with HDMI: Do you need a tuner?

Hello,

My PC has an HDMI input.

I would like to know if I connect an HD TV receiver directly to my PC with an HDMI cable, will TV software like Windows Media Center or Nero Live automatically detect the TV, or do I also need to install a TV tuner?

Thank you

Configuration: Windows 7 / Firefox 3.6.16

Good evening
the HDMI only works one way and on PCs it's an output (so it's not possible) to plug in a USB tuner.

thank you very much tarascon, it's a shame...

so how can I get HD TV on my PC?
All the TV tuners I've found have an SD input, either S-Video or coaxial.
