Does anyone have a good recommendation for a tuner card OTHER than ATI?
I've been looking at Hauppage and Pinnacle, but came across
DViCO the other day.
I'm not sure if any of them have good track records for drivers, software, updates and overall quality products (not that i'm thrilled with ATI, but i would not care to venture something even worse).
Any opinions of experience would be appreciated. Opinions based on heresay or net reports are always welcome, but these are incredibly unreliable. It always seems that 50% of the people who use ATI cards have no problems, and then the other 50% get no rest at all. I'm in that latter category.
Have had great success with nvidia, but they dont' sell video capture/tuner cards. For some reason the ATI AIW cards i've used have always had at least one or two major glitches, sometimes fixed in driver updates, only to have another one popup.
I recently had to RMA two cards to ATI including one they had just returned to me. The last one i received (#3) had a broken pin on the HSF which i fixed with a chunk of cork and a wood screw, but damn, what idiot would send out a new yet broken card on a RMA return?
Bloody infuriating.
