it is probably because you are using an internal pci card.
i think the usb ones are alot better cause there is no interference

      Andy,
      I suppose that picture quality depends on your video card as well, so maybe it's not only software to blame.
      I have TV tuner card Hauppauge WinTV go and allegedly Hauppauge is one of the best brands in that, but I'm not happy with the picture quality on PC.
      Therefore, I don't even try to pass such image to TV. Once I get that fixed the way I like, I'll try watching it back on TV.

            I'd agree with Mark, personally I'd like Showshifter to be renamed to
            Sh*tstabber .. it's kak (picture quality, interface, stupid audio
            switching crap).. If I could get Tivo here in NL I'd be down the
            shops right now getting one... unfortunately they only seem to think
            that the US and UK exist - even though Philips are Dutch ...I
            wonder... has anyone got a Philips Tivo? does it say made in Holland
            on the bottom? Would be a Pronto all over again!
