Best card available (1 Viewer)

HI All,

As i seemed to be having so many problems with my current TV card (nova-t usb2) i wondered if there was a better card to have that was known to be fully compatible and the preverbiable POP to install?

If you're looking for just an Analog card, I'd suggest the Hauppauge PVR500 dual tuner card.

If you're looking for a digital card, unfortunately I can't make any suggestions!

Hello!

I have a LifeView Duo DVB-T PCI card and it is good. Unfortunately though I have never got the Analogue tuner to work with MP. Digital works great though. Would be very interested to find out how the previous poster got the analogue tuner to work and also if he has got the Composite/S-Video inputs to work as well??

I'm running XP Pro, will this card work? All I see in the description is MCE.

Generally there is no problems with MCE hardware/drivers as MCE is just XP home with the MCE application attached to it.

Madmonkey try latest cvs
Unfortunately unless i stick another aerial on the roof the house is upto its limit on signal, but looks like support for analogue now added with manual tune only in setup (country not available). PS new lifeview driver available jan 2006
