The latest card FusionHDTV3 uses a Conexant chip CX23881 .
I think this card could work (have not tried yet) except it might need some additional support.
You mentioned on your configuration page...
The additional support I think that would be needed would be to specify which tuner source, digital or analog, to use. Â And for digital channel, a sub-channel id would be required. Â That is, digital stations might have channel identifier of 5.1, 5.2, 5.3 which maybe located on physical channel 27. Â For the first step I think just having one subchannel would work, since most of the time the other subchannels may not have useful info.
There is a universal MPEG splitter which should make like a bit easier seperating the subchannel... it can be found here

I think the other issue might be audio. Â I noticed your configuration doesn't specify where to get the audio. Â In the case of the FusionHDTV3 card, the audio is sent over the PCI interface which I think is embedded in the MPEG stream. Â It uses the standard .tp (transport stream) file format. Â But I'm sure the codec shows seperate output connections in GraphEdit.
It would be wonderful if this support could be added. Â Especially since DVICO http://www.dvico.com manufaturer of the Fusion) is developing a wide range of digital cards, from DVB, HDTV, digital cable, etc. Â Many markets are now being supported. Â All of their new cards use the same Conexant chip

This option is useful if you want to use an external live TV application - select the path to the .exe file and the arguements your live TV application requires (e.g. "/channel="- the channel can be passed by entering "{channel}" (e.g. "/channel={channel}"
If you think of any other unusual uses for this option....
