MMC & other TV card

[R. J. Salvi]

Anyone know if ATI's MMC will work with a non-ATI TV card? Thx.

Sounds very unlikely.

Sounds very unlikely.

MMC won't even work with a number of OEM Radeon cards (including my ASUS
9600XT - which is a VIVO card), so I have to agree with Brian. It's very
unlikely.

It barely works WITH ATI cards much of the time - I'd truly doubt it'll work
on another card, but have never tried it.

I was quite surprised to find that it _almost_ works with my Dvico Fusion
HDTV II board in analog mode. It will display picture and sound but when I
try to go into setup it freezes--probably because it doesn't recognize the
ATSC tuner. I _suspect_ that any board that uses the same chip and tuner
that ATI uses in the TV Wonders would work, but if you're going with that
combo you may as well go ahead and get the TV wonder because going with a
different brand that's made from the same parts won't gain you anything.
