[mythtv-users] TV Wonder 650

[Baha Baydar]

Hello,

I recently emailed the linux-dvb list regarding the TV wonder 650
card. They aren't currently supported. See
http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/ATI/AMD_TV_Wonder_650 for some
info.

I do plan on emailing AMD/ATI and asking about support though. With
the new product releases there is only going to be more demand than
ever.
