could someone suggest me better PVR softwares ? Right now I am using the some generic card that my friend had. It does not have any brandname but it bears a certain code printed on its board which is "PV-BT878P+Rev11E".

Right now I am using Chris TV. But as it's an evaluation version I need to search for something else. and I am not able to find any other software that could give me quality as good as Chris TV. Also I came to know that it's one of the sleekest PVR software out there.

But still I need another PVR. Please help me finding one. :)

My machine has
Classic Athlon XP 1800+
Classic A7N266VM
Hynix 512MB DDR266
Generic BT878 based TV Tuner card.
 
well u can get dis one iff u dont lik chris.. (its really gud tv card)
what I have narrowed down so far:
Leadtek TV2000XP/EXPERT PCI Interface TV/FM Tuner Card
COMPRO VideoMate TV ULTRA PCI Interface TV Tuner Card
Hauppauge 1042 PCI Interface Win TV150 PVR-MCE Tuner Card
ATI Theater 550 Pro
 
I tried Media Portal, but somehow it kept on crashing on my computer. You can try your luck with it. But as you said Christ TV is the best out there, You can also try one from the cyberlink. I am presently having a pctv stereo card and running pinnacle vision over it.

I gues you have a pixelview card, check it here http://www.prolink.com.tw/english/products/discontinue.htm see the software accordingly. Hope it helps
 
Thanks boss for the link. Yes , I have tried the software that came along with the Tuner card but it's too crappy to use. Sluggish and ugly interface makes it worse. Also no tuning (not channel scanning ones) or tweaking options. It's a piece of pure shit. :D

While I found the one from Intervideo named Intervideo Home Theater 2 very much useful. Also the output is better than that of Chris TV. I am using both of them right now. And I am quite satisfied with it. I think Mods may close this thread.

I thank
