And it was still snowy on the hauppauge card. Bin time, it also picked up all sorts of digital noises in the computer, doing that directly from the first install gitgo. My pcHDTV-3000 card is 100x the card the hauppauge ever was, the only obvious fly in the cream is that due to the much more selective filtering of the digital cards if stages, the NTSC analogue performance suffers from a very noticeable group delay that the same signal on ch6, our digital channel doesn't suffer from. Most cable systems are as bad, so its a shrug. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
