"I like it (when it´s working). It really fits my needs. Anyone using hauppauge wintv? Lately I´ve had problems with the sound. Sometimes I hear the sounds and sometimes not. It´s really frustrating to never know when it´s going to work. I have checked the cables and re-installed the software but it seems to have it´s own mind."
Update the drivers.
Are you sure it is not a sound card bug?
""...if you do have an antenna, cable input, you can watch 16 screens at once with the ATI software. Perhaps someone else can verify this."
Nope. At least not with my ATI Radeon 7500 AIW anyway.
I think the "16 screens at once" is referring to the channel scanning feature, however, only one screen (window) is active at a time."
It is at least possible to view many channels in theory.
However, you will need the right software, a fast CPU or video card, and lots of video memory.
My 4MB video card barely bulges the load with just one channel, so I can't view 2 channels.
However, it probably is relying on the system memory to work, so I get less than best results(picture breaking into sets of lines under fast movement).
Perhaps I should try viewing several channels on my next computer(I will post the results when I get it done).
You can try opening several instances of the program, but the system will run out of resources(RAM,CPU,VRAM) soon.
