AIW have been know for better image quality

nvidia does not make an AIW wonder card - they tried and it failed miserably - in this line of cards you are better to go with ATI.


Some NVIDIA cards do have video in - but i would personally choose ATI for this area of work - nvidia is a gamer card.

Nvidia's "AIW" line is called Personal Cinema.

the AIW series has the inputs on the card, I believe the personal cinema from nvidia has a breakout box to plug in. who needs more wires on their desk

Actually many of the card manufactures have a VIVO (video in video out) version, but it doesnt have a tuner and all that jive... but i had it on my 4200 that i never used.. oh well...

if all else fails.. i will use my Voodoo3 3500 TV to record video!

ATi's software for their AIW cards is also some of the best in the industry in terms of utility.

^^^ very true - and it saves you money on bjuying 3rd party application - their multimedia center is a great suite of software - considering what you usually get when you buya card - included software is usually not too great but ATI's MMC is a wicked set!
