What card to buy
I need to replace the VisionTek Theatre 550 Pro 1 PCI card and need to know what cards I can choose from for the SnapStream applications to work. Does anyone know how I can find this information. I now am using an ATI AIW 9600 but it does not seem to support Beyond tv SE. I get a report I need to run setup again but that does not help. Can anyone help me with this sitation?
Thanks. Cliff

Re: What card to buy
Any of the Hauppauge tuners will work, I'm very pleased with my HVR 1950. The HVR 2250 is also nice, since it can record two channels at the same time (4 actually: it has 2 digital and 2 analog tuners.)

Re: What card to buy
The 2250 will only record 2 shows at once, not 4.

Re: What card to buy
I just installed the Silicon Dust HDHR and it picks up more OTA channels than my 1600 does too. This is an awesome piece of hardware. Works through the network too.
