What is your opinion as to the best decoder for HDTV resolutions with this current setup?

Since you've also got the ATI 9600XT, I am very interested to hear your opinion of the quality/feature differences you find between that card and whatever nvidia card you get. Please keep me posted.
I'm not getting the quality I want with my 9600XT- I mean I am getting good quality, but it gets jumpy if I pause or change channels. I have to FF a couple of times to get it back in sync.

I'm doing my research to find out if it's worth purchasing a new GeForce 6600 GT (AGP) card since reading about nVidias new drivers and this so called "pure video" feature which I think is appealing- if my research concludes that this works well with BTV...

So, I guess I'm saying I feel I have tweaked my card to it's fullest potential and it's still not satisfying my thirst for "Pseudo HDTV Bliss."

My card meaning the ATI 9600XT.
