I picked up an ATI TV-Wonder-VE cheap over here, US$30. The only limitation is that it doesn't do stereo sound. Works great with xawtv and MythTV, and it's based on the well-supported Brooktree chipset. The card is essentially the same as the TV-Wonder (without the stereo sound), but the Windows-based software that ships with it is slightly crippled. Under Linux, or other Windows software, it doesn't matter.
