Good afternoon all -

I just bought and installed the ATI Wonder USB 2.0 and I am having some trouble I hope someone can help me out with.

When I watch TV normally (without using the TV-On-Demand feature) the picture is not at all fluid, and is very jerky, especially with motion scenes.

When I go to use the TV-On-Demand feature, the picture is smooth and looks great.

I was expecting the opposite to happen, because the TV-on-Demand (at least as I understand it) uses more CPU resources and is more likely to give you a less-fluid, more jerky picture. I am having no problem with the on-demand, but instead when just using the Media Center (9.08, which came with the hardware) to watch TV do I get these problems.

Any suggestions or way I can divert more of my CPU's resources to the normal TV viewing (like it does with on-Demand) so I can get the same picture using both features? I'd just watch TV using the on-demand feature, but it won't let me record doing that.

Thanks a lot.
