The problem of AVIVO that it is only for ati cards only, while purevideo works for any card...but has couple added features for the nvidia, but nothing of importance.

but in the future i am planing to get the ATI Theater™ 550 PRO pci-e which comes with the avivo decoders...

I have the Twinhan 102g...and i did buy it from ebay for around 65bucks...its has one of the highest support for most software out their and can do HD. another popular is the WinTV Nexus...but v2.2 is the one you get and is very hard to get these days.

My display is a 61in Samsung HDTV 1080p...and thanks to my gcard...i have HDMI out for video with sound!.

These cases are very easy to get now...
