Hi,

I'm looking for a new cable TV (analog) tuner for my system. Currently I have only the USB tuner that came with LiquidTV and I don't like it. It seems to get hung once in a while. An then I need to power down the system to clear the device of what ever stops working.

I'm running Win7 x64 RTM.

I was thinking about the Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2250 Dual TV Tuner / Encoder.
Has anyone used this card with LiquidTV does it work well and reliably?

How about ASUS My Cinema EHD3-100 Dual Hybrid TV Card EHD3-100/NAQ/FM/AV/MCE?

Cheers,
Will

I think that if you go to LiquidTV at nero.com, you can find a list of compatible tuners.

I know that - but the one that comes with Nero is listed there. What I want to know is who has had good luck with a dual tuner analog card with liquidTV.

The nero site also says that any card with a std driver interface will work.

What I don't like about the USB tuner:
- It missed a channel change recently on analog cable.
- I've had to power cycle the whole machine to get it to work when it get confused.
- It is fragile being an external USB device.

I would like either a PCI or PCIe card with two analog tuners.

OK - so I found a really good deal on an ATI TVWonder 650 PCIE - I'll see how it goes.

Right now all I know is that it works.
