Can anyone point me to a list of compatible TV tuners that provide either DMA or muxed audio with the video. I have WinTV Radios now, but they don't do that and having the jumper between Line Out on the card and Line In on the sound card isn't going to work because I want to have four TV tuners in place, but I don't have anywhere near that many sound cards.

I don't need ATSC, but it'd be nice. This project is for a school, and they can't afford to spend a lot of money. I need 8-10 cards for under $800. USB cards are ok. Again, the cheaper the better. Thanks

No atsc on this one.
This card passes audio accross the PCI bus.
It has cable in,svideo,composite and audio in.
Does TV and video capture and is also known
to be vista compatable.
Hauppauge WINTV-PVR-150
More info.

I was looking at the PVR-150. I mean, I sort of know what's available, but I suppose I really just want to find the cheapest.

Probably need to look at cards with a phillips chipset that has
audio accross PCI.
Should be able to get something around $30 in some of the off brands.
Might take a look at Ebay.

Thanks, that should do nicely.

I was thinking the cx88xx chipset with cx88_alsa would work as well.

I have this card in an HTPC running MythTV on top of Kubuntu 7.10.

If you're looking to do any capturing, don't go any cheaper than this card. It's a good, solid card, with excellent Linux support.

Kay, cool, PVR-150s it is. That gives me audio through the bus right?

I'm just doing RTSP streaming, that's it.
