If you're talkign about the driver that I've written, it's for the DViCO FusionHDTV5 Lite, not the Gold version: http://www.digitalconnection.com/Products/Video/fusion5lt.asp The Lite card is usually cheaper. Last year I got the card plus a 6ft HDMI cable for $80 or $90. There is a new RT version, and I don't have that, so I'm not sure if the driver will work w/ the new rev of the card. It does appear to be the same chip and tuner, so it should. -- John-Mark Gurney Voice: +1 415 225 5579 "All that I will do, has been done, All that I have, has not."
