Default Fx 5600 ultra and what TV card works?

HI,
I am running a Hyperthreading 2.4 P4 and a PNY FX 5600 ultra vid card
with two monitors and windows xp pro. Has anyone had a similar set up with
a PCI TV tuner card that worked well? It would seem that these things just
dont work to well together these days. I want to shedule TV recordings at
good to great quality. Then edit out the commercials and burn them to watch
later on VCD. The New ATI card sounds good, but I am hesitant to use ATI
with Nvidia Detonator drivers installed. NVIDIA states that in order to
utilize the Personal Cinema Drivers you need the cards designed with it
utilizing a proprietery interface. Oh Well. I have tried the MSI TV
@nywhere (before the hyperthreading fix) it sucked raw. The software
blew.... locked up constantly, every time. I salvaged an old STB TV PCI and
got it to work with DScaler, but the recording part is tuff. Demos dont
seem to work. That intervideo seems to realy suck. and nothing seems to
run where I can use it as a viewer and a recorder. Any advice would be
appreciated.
Thanks,
KY,
