1) ATI says "Windows 2000 drivers and a new Windows 2000 compatible Multimedia Center for the ATI-TV WONDER are planned for release at a later date."

2) These are generic brooktree drivers,and since the ATI is a BT878, it works. Partially. To install, unzip into the right directory, delete the pre-existing devices from windows, have it redetect hardware, and let point it to wherever you unziped the drivers to. It should pick up all (or most) devices. YOU NEED TO REBOOT for one of the devices (crossbar).If you use an application like WINVCR, vidcap32 or others after the reboot you'll be able to get an image. Now for the problems:
1 - It's flaky as all heck. The applications kept crashing on me (usually
on exit), had problems with resizing and preview modes, etc. At least the OS will stay up.
2 - It only picked up video at 320*200. Some apps allowed you to increase the windows size, but youy'd get really grainy pixels.
3 - I only got images out of the deal. No sound. Tuner works, video line input works, but no sound comes out of the card. I think the drivers mention not supporting certain types of sound chips. You can sort of get around this by tuning with an external device (say, VCR or cable box) and hooking the audio from that into your sound card's line in. Of course, that means constant fiddling with the sound card volume control or your cable box's mute. I don't want to say it, but this is usenet, so here goes: make sure it works perfectly under win98 before you try this. You don't want to mess with flaky beta quality generic drivers on hardware which is not working without a hitch. Too many things suck already, don't make 'em worse. On the upside, I was able to get the image to stretch to 1600*1200 (which I can't under W98). Woop. 320*200 stretched by a factor of 6. Now that's progress...
3) Download
DTv program and set the hardware setting to Standard BT878 card and Philips NTSC tuner. Also, sound is working. The programme doesn't need any drivers to be installed since it's accesing the hardware directly. Maybe you'll need to change a setting in the dtv.ini, if the sound seem to have garbage in it, change the line "MSPAutoStereo=1" to "MSPAutoStereo=0". Anyway, it's working great.
3) Beta drivers now available from ATI.
