Need Hardware Advice

My beyond TV setup is:
Shuttle Chassis, 2.4 gig P4, and ATI 9000 AIW
I've had Beyond TV when it was still called snapstream. I love this software, and I'm looking to improve my setup.
My problem is:
I want to output to an HDTV and this video card can't do that. Plus I notice beyond TV has some limitations with AIW cards in general.
What video card and video capture card setup would you recommend for the best performance? Would you recommend going with an AIW card that has HDTV output abilities? Would you recommend going with an ATI card that has HDTV output capabilities and a separate capture card (Hauppagge)? Any particular products you'd recommend?

I don't really play games, this is just for video capture, and playback.

Re: Need Hardware Advice

I would suggest separate video card/capture card. So an Hauppage capture card and either an ATI or NVidia video card. Depending on the way you connect to your HDTV (DVI, Component, VGA or s-video), that might influence which video card to get...

Re: Need Hardware Advice

I'd Go with a Hauppauge (150 or 250) for capture duties, and a Radeon 9600 NP for output (it's compatible with the ATI HDTV component adapter)
