when hooking up dish to computer your choices are limited.
svideo,composite or coax(ch 3/4) that's it. want to change channels? you
have to use the satellite remote.

the ati products are not going to act as receivers/descramblers. hooking
up the bev to the wonder ve is the same as hooking the dish up to a vcr.

You will have to connect your BEV via the coax or comp. (RCA) in on
your card for video and also run lines from the audio out on the BEV
unit to audio in on your sound card. Of course this means they will
have to be close to each other to make it practical. Note if you go
this route, the card only acts as a video capture device. The built
in tuner is of no use. The BEV unit will have to be close by if you
want to change channels.
Gemstar is for cable only.

Also if you bought the VE recently from a store that will take
returns, take it back and get the TV Wonder Pro that just came out a
couple months ago. Only about $20CAD more and it has better video
capture and s-video in.
Future Shop has the Remote Wonder Pro for $99 right now.

We've got a AIW hooked up to cable and a Wonder Pro hooked up to cable
and BEV, if you need ant advice.
