Jesse,

I hope you don't mind me asking, but you said that your setup works 
now.  I just got done getting mine going and it's a little strange.  I 
have 2 cards setup for my pcHD5500 (one as DVB and the other as a V4L 
Analog card).  I go into "Watch TV" and when I select a few channels, 
some work fine and some are really bad.  For example, channel 6 is my 
local ABC.  It looks OK (as good as analog can look anyway).  Channel 65 
is the USA Network, and all I get is green static/snow.  Same with 
channel 68 which is FX Network.

I know that the card is working since I can get some of the channels 
OK.  Did you have any of the same type of video issues with your setup?

Thanks for any info!
Harry
