Hi.

I'm googling trying to find which USB tv tuner to buy (usb/usb2, I use a
laptop!). I've come around 3 products.

- Hauppauge WinTV USB2
- Pinnacle PCTV USB2
- ATI TV Wonder USB 2.0

I'd like to know if someone has one of those working under linux (I use
suse 9.2pro). Informations on google groups and linux usb site suggest
that those devices work with a 50% probability... some report to work
via bttv module but... informations are not clear and stable. Moreover,
no indication from the novell hardware database and yast tv section.

What do you suggest? Any other USB (possibly usb2) to consider?
