I use ATI All-in-Wonder... the TV-tuner function is supported by GATOS (which isn't in Ports, yet, I don't think, but it compiles cleanly from the LinuxVideo CVS...) which is pretty stable. The tuner, composite & S-Video in functions all perform well, quality is good. TV Out is awful at present, but, apparently atitvout is so alpha it'll give you a nosebleed... Cheers, Erik. -- E. L.
