Hey Gang, I am in the search for a good tv tuner card. The one im looking at is a Leadtek Winfast DV2000.

I am a little new to this tv tuner stuff, and I already got a radeon 9800 pro, so getting a all in one wonder is not a choice...

My price range is around $50.. And It would be nice to record stuff.
 
That is the best card in that price range. Software is decent, though has a few bugs (I had a problem uninstalling the Leadtek drivers--had to reinstall windows because of it). Tuner quality is OK, as is capture quality. Just remember that it is a software encoder, so will really use up cycles when capturing.

Edit: The card I'm talking about is the Leadtek Winfast TV2000 XP Deluxe.

I had the TV2000 XP Expert. I wasn't impressed, and returned it. The video quality was below that of the video-in on my old FX 5900. It has since been replaced by a 9800 Pro AIW. So far, it's looking pretty good.
