ATI All In Wonder Radeon Supported or Not?

I have searched the forum and web. It seems that no one has been talking about it. But I just cannot make AIW Radeon to work with SageTV. The video source setup went fine, and it even plays one channel in "color calibration". But that's all, SageTV will never play any TV, just a black window. Someone said that only hardware encoder cards are supported. But I have a Hauppauge WinTV cards that works pretty well with SageTV using software encoding. Anyone has a clue on it? Thanks.

Some software encoder cards work OK & some don't. The SageTV System Requirements page has a comment about such cards, though it doesn't have a list of all software encoder cards.

I did get the AIW to work with Sage but I believe I remember I had to edit a line in the properties file that excluded it ...

Besides that, the AIW software encoded cards don't perform as well as hardware encoded. At least in my experience.

Which driver version are you using? ATI seems to have broken something with the AIW cards in SageTV since the 6.3 drivers. My AIW works fine with version 6.2.

Thanks. Version 6.2 doesn't work either. Everytime I click "watch tv" or "program guide", SageTV will lock up something. The program will lose response or at least lock up something. It cannot exit or be killed by task manager. Only restarting PC will make the capture device work again. Media Player Classic does the same thing when trying to Open Device. VLC works fine.
