Could someone please help me decide between two Tv Tuner Cards. I am trying to decide between the Prolink Pro and the ATI TV Wonder VE. I have only read bad things in regards to ATI and linux but I'm not sure if this only concerns the All in Wonder cards.
Here are the specs (from newegg.com) for the two cards thanks. Goin'Up Prolink PixelView Play TV pro PCI MODEL TV-BT878P+ RETAIL PixelView PlayTVpro turns your computer into a multimedia recreation! Specifications: Conexant Bt878 chipset. Single-Chip video capture/TV tuner multimedia adapter. Fully PCI Rev 2.1 compliant and zero wait state PCI burst write. PCI bus master interface. Supports Windows 95/98. Model#: PV-BT878P ATI TV WONDER VE PCI RETAILWatch TV on your PC, Get interactive TV listings with no monthly fee Specifications: Capture motion video and still images Schedule and record TV programs Scan channels at a glance, Zoom Closed captioning for Hot Words1 Play audio and video CDs Watch TV while browsing the Net MPEG-2 Motion Video Capture and Still Image Capture Digital VCR and Scheduled Viewing Model#: TV WONDER VE I know that isn't much of a desciption of the ATI card but thats all newegg had and all I seem to be able to dig up fast. What leans me towards the Prolink card is the chip is used and (from what i know) this chip seems to be widely supported in linux and can give some great result. The ATI on the other hand is cheaper and smaller which will make it easier to fit into a custom case that I'm building. Can anyone make any recommendations in regards to performance, compatibility, or overall experiences. Thanks again.ONDER VE PCI RETAILWatch TV on your PC, Get interactive TV listings with no monthly fee Specifications: Capture motion video and still images Schedule and record TV programs Scan ch ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
