    Micheal, are these just for PAL based boards? I just tried them on my NTSC based Sapphire and they worked and so far seemed to have fixed my problems with powercinema. Go figure. Thanks for posting new drivers, you rock. Now I can watch tv even if I can't record.

    Michael, I am using XP 2nd edition and downloaded the new driver. the new driver fixed the problem of no sound with the Sapphire Theater 550 Pro. I still have other problems with the board - the problem of sluggish video and the video being out of sync with the audio, video quality lower than what I expectes, and no software to view TV or video inputs. Do you know of any solutions. I'm supprised that I'm having all these problems. I guess that I should have waited for ATI to release their own card. Any help from anyone will be appreciated.

    Hi guys,

    I would like to know, does the TV tuner support both PAL and NTSC?

    @ Michael B: Intervideo WinDVR 3.0 has no sound when its not using the Timeshifting and there is something with the 3d/2d comb filter settings that are wrong on Sapphire boards
