Default Windows Media Center find tv card
Hello,

For Christmas I received a TV Wonder 650 TV Tuner Card by ATI.

I have been using their software and I hate it, but I have heard you can use windows media center with it. It says it right on the box... Anyways, I opened up windows media center, but I don't see a TV button at all. How do I set this up?

I'm also not too familiar with MCE, however I do know that ATI had to have a special codec to be used with it...Microsoft has all the details - if it's not on the 2 above links suggested by Arctos, let me know and I'll see if I can find it for you.

Here's the link to Ati's driver page, the wdm drivers are the ones I think. My Compro tv tuner cards use that type of driver as well for MCE.
