I have an ATI TV Wonder USB stick. I've tried a lot of tuner software, but so far i've liked none. Catalyst Media Center was a horrible experience, ChrisTV didn't work too well, and Dscaler dosen't support ATSC signals.
I'm having problems starting WatchHDTV though. It seems like it'd be far better then any of these programs, but i get an error when scanning channels with the beta, and 1.960 dosen't even start. I've run the configuration programs for both, and filled in all the needed settings. Any ideas?

What error is reported with the program?
Maybe try the oldest drivers you can find for the USB stick.

I must say I am still disappointed with this program with Vista 32 and previously on XP. It just won't start. Trying the Vista Beta. Get to pick audio and video codecs, have Watch open , try scan, WatchHDTV.exe has stopped working, no solution online so close program. Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: WatchHDTV.exe Application Version: 0.0.0.0 Application Timestamp: 4786d24e Fault Module Name: Indiv01.key Fault Module Version: 11.0.6000.6324 Fault Module Timestamp: 47e4e65f Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 000fe887 OS Version: 6.0.6001.2.1.0.768.3 Locale ID: 1033 Additional Information 1: e2fe Additional Information 2: e81a7329b40a7e78a6cd3990b54799a5 Additional Information 3: 5ad7 Additional Information 4: 5e6e99e687bbacd0b995933e8a7f16e0
Same thing happened when I tried versions for XP on another machine. Had it working on the XP some time ago, but Pure Video Decoder that came with the Autumn GT wouldn't let audio through.
Move computers around and now with Vista same problems. Do like Watch better, but this is getting old. Added the C++ stuff but only got to open Watch, nothing else. Thanks if you can help.
