I like my ATI TV Wonder VE. My friend has the Pinnacle Studio PCTV with the remote, I like that one even better, but it's more expensive.

Yeah, it has a vcr function. Works pretty good, except the capture is still Beta(as far as I know, haven't checked in a while) for win2k/XP so the vcr function dosen't work. I used to run 98se and it worked great.

Radeon 8500DV.

It's a little pricey, but it has top-notch VIVO functionality (including a great silicon-based TV tuner) and excellent 3D Gaming performance to boot.

And the RF remote is spectacular :D
