    I just got this card from AVerMedia's eStore and was surprised at its capability on the ATSC and NTSC channels. The low profile nature was a perfect fit for my small entertainment center PC. Both inputs channels on the card picked up the ATSC and NTSC channels immediately and I was awed by the crisp digital channels. I would recommend anyone looking for a low profile PCIe combo tuner to take a look at this.

    I'm a little slow on what QAM means in relation to Media Center.

    I currently have a DirecTV H10 receiver patched into my ATI AIW2006 via RCA cables. Can I connect my satelite cable into the AVerMedia card and remove the DirecTV box from the equation?  Thanks in advance for the info!

    ...I was awed by the crisp digital channels...

    Since the ATSC portion of any such card simply passes an unmodifed data stream to the DVR application to be displayed/written, there's nothing more 'crisp' about one than another.

    The real question is how does the NTSC performance compare to the best competitors (ATI 650 for example).

    QAM has no meaning when it comes to media center.  Qam is a way of broadcasting a digital tv signal.  If you have cable, and you want to watch a show above channel68 ,(or is it 86?) it will be broadcasted in QAM.  HD over cable is also boradcasted in QAM.  Vista will allow you to view QAM signals if you get an OCUR ready PC.  Also the HDHomeRun appears to allow you to view QAM in MCE 2005(Still early beta but looking promising).  Otherwise MCE does not support QAM.

    Just look up QAM on wikipedia for details, then come back and search here for threads on it.

    Also, can you record NTSC and ATSC at the same time in Windows MCE?

    Re: AVerMedia released AVerTV Combo PCI-E x1TV Tuner (Analog and ATSC/QAM Ready)

    Yes, you can record as many shows as you have tuners, and your hard drive can handle.  By default, 2 HD and 2 Analog at the same time, but with hacks even more.

    I meant in specific with this card in MCE.  I think the ATI Theater 650 has NTSC and ATSC tuner, but it will record only one at a time.  Just wanted to see if this card card record both at the same time before spending the cash.

    Re: AVerMedia released AVerTV Combo PCI-E x1TV Tuner (Analog and ATSC/QAM Ready)

    Because this Combo tuner, physicly 2 tuners built on board, so you can record 2 at the same time: one Analog and one ATSC/QAM.

    Also, if you put 2 of them, you can record 4 channels at the same time: 2 Analog, and 2 ATSC/QAM.

    Speaking about QAM, this month AVerMedia will release application for QAM.

    I just called avermedia and asked if this card support QAM, and they say not yet, they are working on a standalone application, but it is not done yet, so no QAM yet in windows platform with this card, or A180

    Re: AVerMedia released AVerTV Combo PCI-E x1TV Tuner (Analog and ATSC/QAM Ready)

    AVerTV Combo PCI-e does work in MCE and even Windows Vista Premium Certified with 32 bit and 64 bit drivers are avaliable now.

    This tuner does support Clear QAM, right now Vista does not officially support QAM yet, so AVerMedia will release own application to support QAM.

    A180 hardware also support Clear QAM, and AVerMedia will release Application this months.

    When did the A180 start supporting Clear QAM? The A180 is an Over The Air ATSC Tuner Card.
