I've posted to the list numerous times about that very card. It's a 
pile of crap. I have one. I use it as a secondary tuner, and it does 
work, but the image quality isn't the greatest (but then my primary is 
a PVR-250). It seems from what I've read that the primary problem 
w/AVerMedia's cards is crap tuners, so they need very clean signals. 
We'll see how my AVerMedia M179s work when they get here...
