I'm looking for a good PCI TV Tuner card. I run Win2k, so I need one that has good driver support. I've looked at the ATI TV Wonder and the WinTV card... What do you guys think?

I can only say something about the WinTV and KNC-One cards...well, my Win TV PCI is now 3 1/2 years old and it's still going strong. Hauppauge's driver support is usually better than average when comparing it to the other TV card manufacturers. The overall quality of my KNC-One card doesn't seem to be as good as the WinTV's, but I only use it for capturing and it's doing a good job there and, more important, it works with my KT133 board which the WinTV doesn't.

Am using the ATI All-in-wonder-pro 128 32Mb in AGP4x mode without issues. The tuner doesn't work in NT4 but is fine in 2000. Not the highest performer, but it works quite well. Have used TV, capture, video out.

For windows 2000, get a hauppauge!

I have the win-tv stereo (check my sig) Everything works fine, but windows 2000 will not scale the picture up to your desktop resolution. If you want to watch full screen, you have to allow it to change the resolution. This isn't a big deal, I get a clear, crisp picture. I haven't tried capturing anything with it yet though.

been having a problem with my tv card(s), both a pinnacle and a voodootv 200. Crappy signal with coaxial in, only 2 channels; good reception with rca(composite), and ok with s-video. Any suggestions?
