Leadtek WinTv 2000XP vs. ATI 9700 AIW Recording quality

[jdogg707]

Which of the two above mentioned cards will have the best image/sound quality while watching TV and recording? I need a 9700 Pro and can get the AIW version for 340.00 at work and we don't currently have the regular 9700 Pro in stock...so which would you pick? I mean as far as games go I know they are the same card capable of the same things, but it seems like with the VideoSoap feature on the AIW it would make the quality better...is this true? Thanks...

my 7500 aiw on a p3 700 can record in mpeg2 with no dropped frames and the system remains quite usable. as for other features i dunno

so which would you pick?

I'd pick the AIW 9700 pro unless you need dual head support. Better feature set, better remote, native component output. AIW retain much more of their resale value at upgrade time also.
