That's a bummer. I was looking to use this card for radio-only (doing some
real-time encoding of radio broadcasts into a Shoutcast stream on a Celeron
533). Hopefully it works for at least that.
FWIW, I already have a Pinnacle PCTV Pro for watching TV and it's just dandy :)

I've been rather busy with other things so I haven't had much time to
spend on it. There's a sale on TV cards at CompUseless this weekend, so I
think I'm going to go pick another one up and see if that does any better.
I found that with fine tune at 6 or 7 I get an OK picture and sound.
Sometimes, the sound doesn't tune anyway but most of the time it does.
