WITHOUT ANY TESTING due to time constraints.

I cant tell you any more about these drivers than this. Try them at your own risk.

Not quite brave enough yet as I've been stung by early driver versions. If there is any brave soul willing to try them and let us know, I'd be grateful.

The same version of the drivers have been posted on SHS's site, and one of the regular driver "whiners" seems to have something positive to say:

Today, History was made! More than a year after the audio problem was reported to Hauppauge, it was finally fixed! My eyes are full of tears ()! Now I can do with my card what I bought it for, even though new models came out during this year, cheaper and with higher quality (not funny)!

Regular driver 'whiners'...

that's funny. If the usual suspects are happy with them, I may have to give them a try...

lol - I dont mean it in a bad way. He just demands quality, which is good for all of us if he and other like him get themselves heard often enough.

Thought I would try them. Typical for my system, I can't get the 150 to tune to anything. Even Tuning Assistant won't show any pic. Does anyone have any idea why a 150 could be so picky with dvrs? So far, the only good dvrs I can get working are 23083 and 23258. OK, so I can get a reasonable response with the aforementioned dvrs but there is a worry that my inability to use MANY other dvrs will bite me on the bum at some later stage.

I'm still on 2.0.18.22280, and other than the DVDs I make being very loud, everything has been working fine. I am hesitant to try something new. But XP does have the "Driver Roll back", and it actually works...
