Actually 9 times out of 10 that IS the case, however the TV Wonder does have
some issues with tuning.... I've experienced the same thing here in
Vancouver, BC, Canada and I know a few people in outlying areas who
experience the same thing.
Also there are multiple tuners that will work with the TV Wonder, dunno about
the VE, I've had success with tuner=2 (phillips ntsc) and tuner=8 (temic
ntsc) and one or two others. I'm currently using the temic tuner as that is
what it is detected as under Win9x and under linux if no tuner argument is
passed to bttv. Oddly enough, it you take the cover off the tuner, it most
definitely is a Phillips one. Using the Temic tuner argument does seem to
give a cleaner signal though <shrug>.
