Title: AMD TV Tuner and eCS? Post by: BigWarpGuy on 2007.10.18, 15:43:41 http://www.tgdaily.com/content/view/34397/135/ (http://www.tgdaily.com/content/view/34397/135/)
There is an USB version. Could this work with eComStation? http://ati.amd.com/products/tvwonder650/index.html (http://ati.amd.com/products/tvwonder650/index.html) Title: Re: AMD TV Tuner and eCS? Post by: Saijin_Naib on 2007.10.19, 00:09:55 I mean technically, sure why not?
It would need a driver though right? Title: Re: AMD TV Tuner and eCS? Post by: miturbide on 2007.10.19, 00:28:27 About the USB TV Tuner, there is no driver for OS/2-eCS.
I have a Hauppauge WinTV USB arround and long ago I shared some e-mails with an OS/2 developer (from OS2tv.com) and told me that will not be a hard challenge to make a USB driver for it, since the chipset driver (B858 ?) was already ported, but it had be change the recognize the USB instead the PCI. But I never found a developer willing to make it work. I don't know which chipset is using the ATI TV Wonder 650 Combo USB. Or if there is available some driver that can be reuse for that.

Post by: miturbide on 2007.10.19, 00:39:46 uhm... , there are some drivers available for Linux (at SourceForge - GNU GPL License) http://sourceforge.net/projects/usbvision/ But on the compatibility list, there is no ATI. http://usbvision.sourceforge.net/index.php?page=device Title: Re: AMD TV Tuner and eCS? Post by: sXwamp on 2007.10.19, 01:10:25 This is a little off topic, but if anyone wants a good cheap solution for TV on OS/2. Buy an old WIN TV PCI (USA version) from eBay. Then use an older version of Warpvision for the TVin feature. This gives a great picture and if you have to use a cable box, just set warpvision on channel 4 and use the remote from the cable company. :) The last version of warpvision has a bug that will not set the picture to NSTC, but if you only need channel 3 or 4 it is fine to use.
Title: Re: AMD TV Tuner and eCS? Post by: cyberspittle on 2007.10.19, 07:09:33 I am using a non-OS dependent box to display TV on my computer monitor:
(http://www.kworld.com.tw/upload/20070627025233_5.jpg) It is called, "KWorld TVBox 1440ex". The only issue with this device is that it is analog only, meaning that when analog signals are no longer being broadcast, you have a nice paperweight. However, if you use cable TV anyway, then this would not be an issue. http://www.kworld.com.tw/product_overview.aspx?P_id=15 (http://www.kworld.com.tw/product_overview.aspx?P_id=15) If you want to check it out. Personally, I wish I would have got the one with a digital receiver. Hindsight is always 20/20 isn't it? I do like the ability for PIP (Picture in Picture) and being able to switch to full screen. It can also be connected to a DVD player, which can accept a 480P signal, instead of broadcast 480i, which can be grainy. Title: Re: AMD TV Tuner and eCS? Post by: RobertM on 2007.10.19, 21:31:06 Another option are the lower end Hauppauge cards (or the higher end if you decide you don't mind spending more money for their added capabilities).
Check out: http://www.s-t.de/emperoar/ For a list of compatible ones (I think someplace there was mention of it working with higher end cards than the 350 as well, but cant find it at the moment). -Robert EDIT: Per the Changes file, the 500 and certain MCE versions should be supported... check out this file as well.. http://www.s-t.de/download/changes.txt
