I've been looking around for a TV Tuner for my computer and I'm kind of stuck. I don't know what to get. USB is out the window due to lack of bandwidth. I want MPEG2 encoding and D1 resolution. I also want something similar to ATI's Guide Plus, however I have an NVIDIA Geforce 3 TI200 from Leadtek and run WinXP, so ATI seems to be out the window due to driver issues. Here are my system specs, just in case there are compatibility issues with any specific card:

CPU: Athlon XP 1600
MB : Epox 8KHA+
SC : SB Audigy Platinum
VC : Leadtek Geforce 3 TI200
NIC: Netgear FA311
HDD: Western Digital WD1200JB
DVD: Pioneer 105S
CDRW: Teac CDW516E

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Try Hauppauge or AverMedia. I heard they are pretty good. I think I am going to get the AverMedia TV Studio with remote control soon.

BTW, be careful with PowerColor product, especially its MTV878 TV Tuner... brrrr...

Good luck.
