I've officially given up on this POS card.  The record quality is pitiful and the time discrepancy issue is annoying and can cause firmware lockups so I'm ready to yank it.  2 items: Weird, I have a PVR-500mce, which has the same tuner times two and the record quality is excellent. 1. Any suggestions on a replacement?  How's the pvr-250 freestyle (usually sold as Gateway OEM)?  What's the major difference between the pvr-150 and pvr-150mce? MCE has an FM tuner but no remote.  Both 150s have the same tv tuner.  The 250 is supposedly a better tuner (the 150 replaced it in the lineup with less expensive chipsets, possibly a digital tuner vs an analog one), but my 500 is better than my ancient 250. 2. Anyone want to test this thing once I get a replacement?  I'll gladly send it to anyone willing to play with it. No slots left. :( Keith C
