Re: 3 or more HDTV tuners

I don't think the OP here is trying to use more than one ATI HDTV Wonder (he
has two of another card, which others haven't had problems with AFAIK).

Last time I checked, more than 1 hdtv wonder in the same computer will not
work. Its a manufacturer limitation. If you already have an hdtv wonder,
you will need to mix it with another brand. You should contact ATI if
this is your prefered tuner, they will have the most up to date
information on if you can use more than 1 in your computer.

I have 2 Avermedia 180A's and a ATI HDTV wonder all working happily
together.

Has anyone successfully been able to get 3 or more HDTV tuners working
with MCE 05? I realize that it doesn't support it, but am curious if
anyone has done it. If you have, what cards did you use?
