Though ATI marketed their All-In-Wonder 2006 in their upgrade advisor as
being compatible with Windows Vista, it neither is recognized By Vista Home
Premium's Media Center, not do they have a Vista software program!
AS QUOTED FROM ATI.AMD.COM:
"Note: All-in-Wonderâ„¢ boards operate with AMD Windows Vista-Ready Display
Drivers under the Windows Vista Operating System. However there is currently
no software application which provides TV/Capture functionality for
All-in-Wonderâ„¢ boards under Windows Vista."
This is an outrage!!! Can anyone recommend a good lawyer?
I have the same issue on the all in wonder x800xl pci express I was told by
ati the tv softwre is currently being tested. However it will be a software
mpeg decoder which will be a cpu hog! i am and recommend purchasing a stand
alone tuner card. the hauppage pvr 150 pci card is $66 at tiger direct has a
built in hardware mpeg decoder and drivers built in to vista. the plus side
to this is eventually when ati releases driver software for tv function you
will have 2 tuners and can watch and record another channel.I know it is an
outrage that Ati/Amd are slow to release drivers for our expensive
hardware.....but this is 100% Microsofts fault Ati cant even release the
drivers until microsoft releases a patch for vista for it to work!Dont wait a
year for your card to finally work just spent the 66 bucks for a better tuner
that wont eat the cpu resources.
microsoft has decided to no longer allow software based tuners.
you will need to find a firmware/hardware based tuner.
ati is coming out with some if not already available.

Not true MS has no itdea if the encoder is hardware or software based since VISTA only talks to the driver and not to the board itself
In MCE 2005 MS said it would not approve of any software drivers to be approved for its MCE2005 logo program and ATI and others developed the with software encoders and they worked fine even thought they were very CPU intensive.
I read another post this week that stated that a user had gotten a respose from ATI that Vista software drivers for the tuners on AIW cards were currently being tested by users and would be released in the future(no date speciified).
