Best TV Tuner Software

[Montani304]

I have a Happauge Collosus TV Tuner and am currently using WinTV v7 with it. It works fine, but I'm not able to get Windows Media Center to recognize my tv tuner, I've tried everything and even contacted Happauge and Windows about it. What are some good compatible softwares outside of the two I've mentioned? I don't mind spending a little money. WinTV is great for watching tv, but I'd like something a little more powerful for recordings, commercial deleting, etc...

Have a new patch (drivers) for Collossus hardware. check Hauppage drivers.

While installing it gives me a similar error message that Windows Media Center does, that there's no detected TV tuner. The TV tuner is working through the bundled software though so it is installed and working correctly.

Colossus support for Windows Media Center (beta version)

The Colossus support for Windows Media Center allows you to use the Colossus to watch, pause and record high definition TV under Windows 7 Media Center from a cable TV or satellite set top box. It operates in a similar way as other Hauppauge TV tuners for Windows Media Center, but Colossus records in high definition using H.264 encoding. Notes:
Windows Media Center support for Colossus is for Windows 7 only.

Got it working. I've used those drivers, but it never ended up working before I retried them this time. Thanks!
