Bother installing ATI MMC?

Since I have SS and a Hauppauge WinTV PVR250, do I need to bother installing ATI's MMC? I am doing a clean install and dont want to install anything I don't need.

I don't think there's anything in it that you need if you're just using the card as a display/TV out card.

I definitely would try snapstream without it cause MMC can cause a lot of headaches - occasionally.

agreed. i've never installed mmc and haven't missed it a bit. this was with both aiw as capture card and now with the pvr (and the aiw as the display card only).

You might want it for the hardware MPEG-2 decoder, if you have MMC8 or higher. Just install the DVD player.

I just wanted to comment that ATI software is EVIL. I continue to define WMP as my default video viewer and it continues to take back control and reset all my files without my permission.

Its pure EVIL I tell you.
