Vista - Are there ANY TV tuners that are supported by Vista Pre-RC1?

Are there?

Yes. My 'blackbird' tuner (Connexant) works just fine with Pre-RC1.

The ATI All in Wonder 9600 AGP card still does not even get detected on my
computer Vista Pre-RC1. I downloaded the new ATI RC1 drivers to see if would
work with this build. The catalyst center installed and works fine but still
no tv card. I am using a dual boot with Windows XP and the TV card works fine
with Windows XP. Should be able to download RC1 this week hopefully if I get
the email from Microsoft and hopefully it wil find the TV card portion.

No, it won't. The ATI AIW will NOT be detected by Vista and won't work with
Microsoft's Media Center components. ATI could write a driver for it but it
would
be standalone, not fully integrated into the MS Media setup.

The digital (ATSC) tuner of my HDTV Wonder has been supported by Vista since
the 5xxx series of builds began. Beta 2 (5384) obviated the previous
requirement (from Media Center Edition) that required an NTSC tuner be
installed and supported to use an ATSC tuner; good thing, since my AIW 9700
Pro's TV tuner is not supported by Vista (not even by RC1).

I have an older Radeon AIW card. No drivers for the Tuner in RC1. The items
needed are all listed in device manager under others (not working)

I don't know about Vista, but I do know that in XP MCE, my old ATI AIW
Radeon WOULD work with MCE using the ATI MCE Encoder package. Of course, I
could not do ANYTHING else since the CPU was pegged out doing the encoding.
