I had been using a radeon VE for a few weeks, it worked great especially for watching DVD's on my TV. I recently picked up the All In Wonder and tried to watch a DVD and it just looked bad, it looked fine on the monitor, but bad on the TV. Plus I don't like the fact that it resizes my screen, even if it is running 800x600 it smashes it down smaller. Plus the display on the TV is a bit too big, but the controls don't fix it. The VE doesn't have any of those problems.
If I do return this, what would be the best way to go. I am looking to be able to play games and watch DVD's on my TV. I want to be able to record TV on my hard drive. So should I stick with the radeon VE( I do play some games, but I am stupid or blind and don't notice a differance between many cards) and get a TV tuner card with PVR ability, the VE can handle the DVD decoding can't it? Anything else?
The radeon VE will work fine for me watching DVD's and playing games on the TV, but I wanted the PVR ability, the only other PVR card I know of is made by hauppague and costs about the price of the AIW .
