Det har i lang tid været nødvendigt med et specielt udvidelses kort til PCI eller AGP porten for at få ordentlig TV på pc'en. Men ATi introducerer en USB løsning.
Nyheden: "For PC television fans, up until now the only viable choice for TV viewing on the computer has been with an addon PCI or AGP (in the case of the All-In-Wonders) card. There have been USB breakout devices, but they have not been the perfect solution at the time. The slower USB 1.1 interface was one factor in the poor performance, and these breakout boxes often lacked some of the more advanced features found in dedicated TV cards.
While enthusiasts interested in adding TV features to their PC have many options, notebook users are a little more limited in their choices. There are also a number of people who feel uncomfortable opening up their store bought PC, and the last thing they want to do is open a PC up and installing a PCI card. ATI has taken another crack at the USB tuner in the form of the
ATI TV Wonder USB 2.0.Along with improving the visual quality of television viewing from their last product, the new tuner rides the much quicker USB 2.0 bus." ATi's side om deres tuner kort.
