Description
Single-tuner PCI card with no hardware encoder.
ATI TV-Wonder Pro comes with a nice remote that works using RF to a USB base that has drivers in the current Linux Kernel.
Issues and Problems
When you first install this card the colour & contrast is way off. The colour, hue & contrast options can be edited through MythWeb or in the channel table of mythconverg database in MySQL.
Starting values for contrast and colour are 25000, but you will need to do a lot of tweaking. Note, this method affects all cards in your mythbacked server.

User Experiences
If you have this card, speak up! This is a good place to note your experiences - ease of install, what you like, what's not to like, etc.
- Because of colour issues and the availability of other cards in this price range I cannot recommend this card. - Matt Clare
